Happy Monday Explorers!
This past saturday Suzy's Farm hosted their annual event, Pedal, Pick & Grin. It was my birthday and after running the San Diego Beer Run in the morning, I was excited to continue healthy habits and head out to the farm.
Suzy's Farm is a fully functioning organic farm. You can pick vegetables, flowers or simply sign up for monthly organic vegetable boxes delivered straight to your door. At this specific event the only thing we could actually pic was tomatoes and flowers. Although we could not pick anything else, they had a very large table full of different peppers and herbs that were grown on the farm. I had personally never seen such a selection of peppers. It was truly beautiful seeing them all laid out on the table.
We opted for a $5 cone that we could fill with anything on their tables as well as flowers and tomatoes from the fields. After stocking up on peppers and herbs we headed out to the fields to do some picking.
I had my little sisters tag along with me (because birthday's obviously must be spent with loved ones) and one of my sisters went ham picking flowers! She was like a sunflower picking machine.
Very thankful for flower picking skills because now we have beautiful sunflowers to look at all around the house. For $5, it was definitely a great deal.
playing with the beautiful sunflowers.
In addition to filling up a cone full of vegetables and flowers, there was a band, two food trucks, hula hooping and various booths.
If you ever want to check out a fully functioning USDA- certified Organic farm, so close to the city, drive a little south and check out Suzy's Farm
