Ardenwood Harvest Festival

We went to the Ardenwood Farm corn harvest festival this Sunday. It is actually pretty fun, even for the adults. The very first thing we did was get on the train ride, however, it does feel a little bit like we were cattles (the big crowd and wooden rails).

Next thing we see the corn field and we just can't wait to go pick corns, so we went there first. It was super fun, you get to pick as much corn as you want, you just have to give half of what you picked to the farm for educational program purposes, and the rest, you can take home. The corn field was large and like a maze, I regret doing this activity first, because it is really labor intensive and we ended up have to carry that big bag of corn around.

Katie is picking corn too, well, I guess more like dropping corn:

Look at the corns we got:

There were also many other activities in the farm, arts and crafts like making corn husk dolls, quilts; food items like fresh pressed apple cider, old fashion ice cream making, etc.; and wool threading and blacksmith demonstrations, music and shows. But... we were so tired from the corn picking, we didn't have more energy to participate in these events, since we still wanted to see the pumpkin patch at Perry farm at the front door.
