D took P to Underwood Family Farms today. I had work to do in the morning, as did he, but his work was about scouting farms. What 2.5 year old doesn’t want to scout a farm?
D said P was beside herself with excitement about picking strawberries right out of the field and eating them later. Although they are not an organic farm the experience was well worth it, even though P had diarrhea from eating the fruit. (I read it’s a common effect of pesticides in toddlers.) I’ve been taking P to Underwood long before she could walk. At this age the experience seems even more poignant. Today was also perfect with the weather in the 70’s, a fabulous break from the triple digits. Missed not seeing the experience first hand
