Tis the season ...

... for fresh vegetables!

Don't they look delicious? This is our weekly produce from the CSA {Community-Support Agriculture} we're a part of here in Murray, Ky. There are mixed greens and cabbage in that basket too. All from Hillyard Field Organics.

Once a week, we go out to the farm with our empty basket and come home with a full basket of whatever is ready.

Cate was particularly excited about the small squash and little pepper. So excited she wanted to pose for a picture with them.

Ben likes to go to the farm and "moo" at the cows. He actually moos at most any animal, but hopefully we can expand his animal noises soon. Cate likes to carry the empty basket and look for my name on the new basket of fresh produce. She asked me this week why her name wasn't on it.

As a momma, I'm glad to be able to take them with me and talk about God rewarding the farmers' hard work with these delicious vegetables, which they share with us. Personally, I also love eating the fresh produce, especially the squash, zucchini, onions and potatoes.

For any Murray folks, you can have some too! Hillyard Field Organics -- owned and operated by Brad and Karly Lowe and their daughters -- also sell produce at the downtown Farmer's Market on Saturdays.
