Down On The Farm

The Somerville family have had a dream for years of having land to raise animals and this last year they have made it happen!  They have a couple of fields in Ashburton where they raise pigs, chicken, some new cows and have a couple of ponies.  We get fresh organic eggs delivered every week and pork sausages, chops and mince.  I have to say the food tastes so good, I'll never go back to buying these products from supermarkets!  This month marks their one year anniversary and we had a ward social at the farm to celebrate along with Pioneer Day.  Our children loved the baby chicks (sorry about the bad mobile phone photos!):
A barbecue can only be eaten one way on a farm: on hay bales!:
A good old fashioned game of rounders finished the afternoon off:
Isn't the view great?:
