Sometimes New Yorkers just need to go somewhere with grass and trees. That's what happened this weekend. Jonah and I and our pals headed north of the city for Harvest Fest at the Stone Barns Center. We indulged in roast pork sandwiches, beer, and sweets and spent the day wandering around the grounds, which are filled with greenhouses, beautiful old buildings, gardens and farm animals. The piglets were my favorite. If I had been carrying a bigger bag, I would have snatched one up and brought it home with me. And yes, I realize the irony of saying that after mentioning a delicious pork sandwich.
Sounds like such a fun weekend and the first photo is the cutest. There is something about sheep I love:) Have a great start to the week. Muah
ReplyDeleteGosh, those piglets are adorable! We just went to the fair and I was so disappointed there weren't any pigs. They had judged the pigs the day before and I guess they load them up and take them back to the farm. My favorite part of the fair were the roosters and chickens. There were some gorgeous birds!
ReplyDeleteI was there shooting! Wish I would of known you were there! :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha--too funny. Those little pigs are pretty cute. Sounds like a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteTotally sounds like my kind of weekend.

ReplyDeleteI want a sheep. I've been trying to convince my fiance that they're ok to have as backyard pets.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a fun weekend! I love all the photos but the piglets are super cute!

ReplyDeleteOoooooh - tell me more about the side dish with your roast pork sandwich? The grains and veggies? That looks so good!
ReplyDeleteExactly! Grains with squash and corn. It was so good!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great weekend!!!! Love the photos.
ReplyDeleteStone Barns is incredible -- and their pigs are so cute! I wish I had known about this Harvest Fest going on, though between spending part of my weekend in DC and the other part in NYC, I don't think I'd have made it there. So glad you had a wonderful time wandering their grounds.
ReplyDeletelove the looks of this harvest fest. great photos!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great weekend as well! You're so right about us New Yorkers needing to get away from the city and being around trees and grass. It's so easy to get stuck in this little bubble. I'm planning a trip to Beacon ASAP.
