holmdel farms

Saturdays are long days by my myself with the kids so I usually try to plan something fun to keep us all happy. Last Saturday, Chelsi and I took our kids to Holmdel Farms, which is connected to a huuuge park/trail system/lake/etc. It was beautiful. The farm does demonstrations each week and on this day is was sheep shearing, the old fashioned way. One thing I want my kids to understand is where things come from so this was a good start - I think we'll go to the library today and get some more books on the process from wool to clothing.
