BACKYARD ADVENTURES ☀️

It's funny how when someone comes to visit you have the opportunity to see your own backyard as a new place just waiting to be explored!

We are so grateful to live on the shores of Lake Huron with so much beauty surrounding us in every direction!

This past week we explored:

🌊 Bayfield, a cute town on Lake Huron
📖 The Book Barn on 86, very neat bookshop in a barn
🌽 Goderich Farmers' Market, picked up pumpkins
🍅🍕 Our own farm & garden, processed homegrown tomatoes

What are your favorite spots to explore in your backyard, we'd love ideas!!

SEPTEMBER GARDEN HARVEST 🌿🧺

As the temps begin to cool, our farm garden is showing off with beautiful bounty!

Things start looking less lush & green around now, but our harvests are so plentiful!

With garlic long gone, a new stand of cover crop takes its place in the garden. It will be turned over in the spring, returning much needed nutrients back into the soil for future growth!

Our basil begins to flower, which we welcome, our Grassroots bees are grateful for the blooms!

Orange pumpkins begin to peek through the tangle of vines in the patch, along with creamy honeynut squash - YUM! The squash couldn't be better timed as it's a much loved first food for our babies and it's time to shine will be very soon!

My wildflower harvests for the pizzeria are getting trickier with less to choose from, our sunflowers seem to have bloomed early & are now drying out for birds to enjoy! I'll be switching to greenery soon likely, which is okay!

Our cherry tomato, elderberry & blackberry bushes are loaded! The boys are kept busy for hours picking & eating all their tummies can take - sunshine sugar! The elderberries are being dried to be made into medicine for this winter's inevitable colds!

Seasons continue to cycle & our garden is such a playground for our family here on the farm.

How is your garden growing these September days?! We'd love to know what favorite crops you're currently harvesting & enjoying!

LITTLE EXPLORERS 🌿🌸

It's the every day magic that makes life with littles so fulfilling!

Their tiny but mighty imaginations inspire me everyday, from exploring flower garden jungles to dreaming our lawn furniture into tractors - these sweet boys of mine are beyond creative!

In the busy of everyday, don't forget to stop and smell (& explore) the flowers!

BACKYARD HANGS 🌿🌳

Who says you have to leave home to picnic? It's not often a day goes by where we don't lay a blanket out & kick back in the backyard!

An old quilt, a shady spot & a couple good books are all my boys & I need for a perfect backyard hang!

Pizza picnic lunches are also a common occurrence around our pizza farm - no surprise there!

FARM CRAWL 🌿🍎🐄

We don't tend to leave the farm often, but when we do we typically find ourselves at... other farms!

This Sunday we snuck away for a family farm crawl and had a blast exploring all of the local farm experiences!

Our farm crawl stops:

🐄 Summit Station Dairy, in Lynden, for delicious local milk & cheese curds!
🌽 Shearlea Acres Farm Market, in Lynden, for local produce & plants, we finally secured a citronella plant for our backyard - yay!
🍎 Brantwood Farms, in Paris, for family fun at their sunflower festival. The boys top picks were the peddle tractors, tractor rides & play structures. My favorite were the endless flower fields!
🍕 Willibald Farm Distillery & Brewery, in Ayr, for pizza lunch and cold farm crafted drinks!
🐐 The Perth Farmhouse, in New Hamburg, for meet & greet with their goats & flights of cider/wine! The boys especially liked the vintage tractors & sandbox!

Exploring other farms in our backyard is such an amazing way to spend a family day and we encourage you to follow along our farm crawl if you have the chance!

If there are more farms or agritourism activities you recommend we would love to hear about them in the comments!

TEAM WORK MAKES THE FARM DREAM WORK 🌾🚜🤝

Here at Grassroots Farm we are fortunate to farm alongside our extended family whose fields neighbor ours!

More hands (& tractors) make lighter work & having three trouble shooters for inevitable breakdowns is definitely a lifesaver!

We love this family farming life and are so grateful for our family unit!

FARM KID SUMMER 🌿☀️

Our sweet as pie farm boys are loving their new mud kitchen!

Crafted from scrap wood & upcycled materials, these boys are busy busy cooking their hearts out!

Fresh air & creativity are the mottos for farm kid summer here at Grassroots Farm!

GRASSROOTS FIELD CREW 🚜🌿🌽

Our boys are a well seasoned field crew at this point, currently keeping Dad company during corn planting!

Bobbing along for hours as Blair & Roger drive around in endless loops cultivating, planting & harvesting, these boys are tractor obsessed!

When they aren't on board tractors, they seem to always have a toy tractor within reach, tightly grasped in their little hands or right along with them in the sandbox!

Textbook future farmers!

HAVE YOU MET MISTY 🐎🌿

Misty is our beautiful horse, protector & pal here at Grassroots Farm!

She lives the good life grazing in pastures all season with her friends the sheep & alpaca. Together they make quite a sweet clan and love meeting new people when they come to visit the farm!

Make sure you wave hello to Misty & our other farm animals on your next trip out to the farm store or pizzeria!
