Since I´m testing to eat eggs now, we took a trip to a nearby organic chicken farm. They produce eggs, not meat. I wanted to see what their chickens´ living conditions are like, and to buy some eggs, whole spelt grains, and rolled oats. It made a nice little field trip for me and my daughter.
|
The farm is located in this beautiful scenery. |
|
To my surprise they also had a small cafe open in the summer months. |
|
We begun our journey. Different species of chicken are sorted in their own coops. |
|
I was happy to discover they had lots of activities and a chance to climb and fly. |
|
A beautiful individual. I doubt the chicken in mass production farms look this fine and dandy. |
|
The roosters were very handsome and healthy. |
|
Omg, what super cute bunnies they had! This one is still a baby, and stole our hearts immediately. |
|
Quickly it´s mother came to make sure we´re not dangerous. |
|
One of their most exotic hens came from China. This is a he... |
|
...and here´s a she with their chicks. |
|
Old-fashioned machinery suit the organic surroundings, and are a proof that the people are not doing it for the money, but for their beliefs and hearts. Admirable! |
|
There was also a playground for kids. Here under inspection is a second (or third or fourth) hand pedal car. |
|
They had also a few ducks. These chicks are a week old. |
|
Then it was time to head home sweet home. |
We both had a fun time and gained new experiences. And when we got home, I made us scrambled egg salad. Truth be told, my daughter did not like the eggs, since she´s not used to eating them. So I guess we´re both learning... =)
