down on the farm

Yesterday, despite the rain and chilly weather, we took the kids here. Its a beautiful 300 acre family-owned farm at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains. 200 acres is a working farm and they grow every fruit and vegetable imaginable. The other 100 acres is a vineyard high up on a hill with a tasting room that overlooks miles and mile of the Loudoun Valley. Its breathtaking. The farm offers hay rides, animals, pedal tractors, rope swings, mazes, fishing, u-pick produce, and so much more. Yesterday was their opening day with a marshmallow roast and egg hunts. And although we are still washing the mud off our boots, pants, socks, and coats, it was all totally worth it.
