One of my long-term goals is to get in the habit of buying in bulk. Currently, the only thing I bulk up on is our medicinal herbs. After viewing my friends bulk storage here in Idaho, I can see the benefits of thinking BIG!

After finishing a two week unit study on "Farming", our friends, (along with the Poppa's), managed a 2 hour hands-on experience at a 40+ acre farm in NewPlymouth, Idaho. Our farming expert, Ms. Mattie, was extremely generous with her time & expertise as a lifelong farmer. I managed to ask several questions, while the children managed to get a real taste of Farm Life. Here are a few notes:
I must admit that our afternoon farm chores had us all really hot, sweaty, and much more grateful for our source of food. There is no doubt in my mind that farming takes lots of hard work and commitment. This field trip made me even more grateful for the fellow farmers out there like Ms. Mattie. Have you hugged your local farmer today?? :-) P/S I'll work on uploading a short video of the farm experience & a link to my friends blog about the field trip :-)
