Another favorite new place in Cincy is…lets see, how do I explain…it’s a small place located in a bigger place. The bigger general area is called Winton Woods. The smaller place located in Winton Woods is called Parky’s Farm. It’s exactly that–a farm, a {small} farm where kids can run around, play on the playground, see the animals, pet the goats, ride a horse or pony, water the vegetables in the garden, and even eat food off the vine providing it’s ripe. {Today a volunteer helped me pick beans to take home–usually they ask that you don’t take food home so everyone can enjoy, but he insisted it would just go to waste. Score!} Most of it is free–‘nother score! Beanie and I have yet to tire of this place.
My favorite part is the huge garden {pictured below}. They have several small watering cans for kids to fill up and water the plants with. On our first trip a volunteer told me how kids just love watering the plants and could do it for hours. She’s right–Beanie has never stopped watering on her own–I always have to drag her away. Here are some pics.
all those gorgeous, fun pics make me wish Brandon could find a job there and live by you guys! Words I cannot use on my posts, but wish I could are: fresh air, gardens, and wide open spaces! 🙂
