I spent the morning with my husband and two daughters picking fresh strawberries. Even at 4 and 2 years old, they already assume food comes from the farm or market rather than a grocery store. We have frequented local farms and markets for the past year and my children’s enthusiasm makes it even more enjoyable than I’d ever imagined. The recent addition of a backyard garden allows even more “hands-on” adventures for the whole family. What is better than a toddler enjoying the “fruits” of their labor?
She ate more than she picked!
