Pacific NW, Part 2

After spending Tuesday with family and friends, we headed down to my Aunt's farm in Woodburn, Oregon. It's such a great farm. The steer mooed at us when they saw us coming.



There were also two dogs, Polly and Pounder, a barn cat, a turkey and some chickens. My kids had so much fun playing fetch with Polly. My daughter carried around the barn cat, and L and I enjoyed petting Pounder, who was loving the attention. But the highlight of the farm, at this time of year, is the tomato vineyard, where they grow the most beautiful heirloom and grape tomatoes.


The farm was especially bountiful thanks to the outstanding weather, and it was so easy to just eat these from out of the boxes in the barn.




Tomatoes aren't the only things that they grow. There were also these really yummy raspberries....



....some strawberries, buckwheat, apples, and sunflowers:
