Fosterfield's is a living farm that runs as though it is still in the 1800s. this year they did the maple sugaring and I still prefer it over at the Great swmap but it was interresting to see the farm in the freezing cold. (ok maybe not interesting b/c it was FREEZING) but I suppose it had some educational value right?
Anyway, I love this farm (in the spring most of all) because the kids really get hands on experience and great time outdoors. In the summer they can wash clothes by hand after filling the bucket from a pump then hang them on the line to dry.
The kids' favorite part in the winter was churning butter because it was inside. and in the summer they like washing the clothes and looking for barn cats.
