A Visit to Alstede Farm

There are few things in life that bring me more joy than food from the earth. The freshest possible.

So a day spent on a farm in the pick your own veggie fields is, for me, a truly joyous experience. I'll let the photos speak for themselves. Frankly they are more powerful than my words can ever be.
