Amy's Farm

Friends in our ward and I put together a summer "adventure" group with outings near and far. On a Thursday in June, we went to Amy's Farm in Chino. We were fortunate to have Ryan join us and April, Wes and Peyton meet us there.  It is a live working farm that I heard tons of good things about and I was thrilled with how it turned out. "Farmer" Cami gave us a tour of the place and was quite energetic and fun. First the kids received instructions.

Ryan, Carter and Shayla 

The garden was huge and the kids were able to smell various plants.  I dislike fennel--I think it tastes like black licorice--and the scent of licorice was very strong!

The boys tasting chard

Sweet Ryan by the chicken coops--the kids took their chard to feed a pig, chickens or goats

Brushing a miniature horse that really didn't like it...William was standing outside of his cage and the horse swung his head and knocked William over!  I don't blame the horse though, I really wouldn't want to be brushed by lots of little kids:)

Cute cousins

Claire milking a cow

Love them both!

In the e.coli infested petting zoo, don't worry we used lots of hand sanitizer!

A lot of the cute kiddos line up and ready to meet the cow

It was a great day and I would highly recommend visiting the farm if you have never been!
