Getting Local With Food










This past Saturday was the 9th Annual King County Harvest Celebration Day. A bunch of farms around the county had an "open house," and invited the public in to walk the fields, ride a hay wagon, pick some produce, and (my favorite) eat some fresh veggies. We spent most of our time at Fall City Farms, where Herban Feast cooked a very nice roasted veggie pizza with goat cheese from the Raging River Farm, just down the street.

The boys watched an apple press in action, then drank the cider. They picked carrots, broccoli, and monster zucchinis. Liam got to play the Medium Billy Goat during a story telling session. And last but not least, they got to pet baby goats, a calf, and a baby yak. It was quite a day.
