I am fascinated with farms – I've probably mentioned this before. Farms, farmhouses, farm life, farm animals.
Maybe the feeling is mutual...
Okay – maybe not.
Later, we had the pleasure of visiting Taylor Farm in Londonderry, Vermont. Word in the village is that they make an award winning gouda cheese.
We were warmly greeted by the welcoming committee
(don't you just love that blue chair!?)
After sampling (and purchasing) the maple smoked gouda - which is indeed outstanding! -
we took a few minutes to feed our hosts
(I'm thinking the propietors understand this whole farm fascination thing)
For suburbanites like us - this was a whole lot of fun!
I will be joining
Little Red House for Mosaic Monday
A Southern Daydreamer for Outdoor Wednesday
Thanks for dropping in!
I would love to feed the chickens too, what fun! I love the cows too! Fantastic photos. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen, What a wonderful trip to the farm - it was so beautiful! So different from Southern CA! I just loved the photos of the chickens. Thanks so much for your visit to me blog. Have a great week! ~Marti
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun, love the welcoming committee :)
ReplyDeleteThe chickens make a good subject for a fun mosaic! I love your photos...looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteI love cows. I think it is the brown eyes! Looks like you had lots of fun with your hosts! Great blue chair and gouda cheese ... you hit the jackpot !!!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely mutual!! I love the farms in Vermont and will actually be up there in 2 weeks for my daughters college graduation. We have been visiting Vermont for more than 30 years now...love it!
ReplyDeleteMaple smoked Gouda!? Sounds fabulous. I love farm scenes for sure but sometimes the farm smells can get to me. :0) Wonderful mosaic! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYes I love the blue chair. My thoughts before I even read your words. I grew up around my grandparents farm and loved it. Of course that has been a long time ago. I think everyone should get to visit a working farm especially children. Great photos.

Great mosaics...the reds, the blue, the gals. Too cute. Vermont is near and dear to my heart so I would have loved this excursion.
ReplyDeleteLots of fun here - those chickens are cute. Feeding them would be a hoot. I think I prefer the chickens to the cows. Less intimidating.
ReplyDeleteI have a farm fascination too! Love your welcoming committee :)
ReplyDeleteLove your hosts, they had lovely colour. Looks like a great place.
ReplyDeletecool shots! like the buffalos :)
ReplyDeleteI can relate to this post. When I visited Prince Edward Island I went to a little place in the countryside that was well know for its gouda; of course, I had to take a picture of the sheep in the pasture!
ReplyDeleteWhat blue chair, you say there is a blue chair;') and the welcoming committee are pretty swell. Oh I do adore Gouda cheese! Looks like you had a nice time~
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Vermont across the road from my grandparent's farm... you've brought back some wonderful memories! Larry
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place to visit! Love the photos of the welcoming committee!
ReplyDeleteI too love farm life. You got such wonderful shots.
ReplyDeleteIm going to show my neighbour your hen mosaic as she keeps hens herself.
