harvest party and neighbors!

Our neighbors. (yes, neighbors!!  I can hardly believe I am referring to neighbors!  It is more exciting than you know! ...and an entire blog post of it's own.)  So, our neighbors(!) invited us to join them for a literal harvest party.  They are farmers and run an organic farm.

Today we joined them, their friends and CSA members to have a final harvest (aka: treasure hunt) in their garden.  We found pumpkins, eggplant, peppers, arugula, parsley, cilantro, carrots... we harvested them from the ground.  

And then we shared a meal with strangers, made new acquaintances and even some new friends.  And we even tried some wine that had no label because it was straight from the barrels.

And then we walked home....   Neighbors. (!)

Doesn't it sound wonderful?   AND we found dandelion wishes along the way, the girls blew them and we made bracelets from the stems.  It's been so long since I've seen those cute little weeds.  It was wonderful.
