Crowe's Nest Farm

On October 25th, Drew and I took the boys to Crowe's Nest Farm. It's a small farm just east of Austin that is motivated by educating kids about animals and farming in general. They have an assortment of animals on their property, and this weekend they were having their fall festival. It was a glorious "Indian Summer" day.

Despite our late arrival, due to napping inconsistencies that day, Drew and Jasper snuck in a hayride. On the tour they saw ostriches!

It was unclear to me why such giant turtles would be part of the farm, but they had multiple.

hanging out in the pumpkin patch.

Benjamin was just under 3 weeks this weekend, and Jasper was just under 23 months.

Pigs snort and grunt and said "oink, oink."

Some pigs are ... huge!

Up close and personal with the donkey.

Benjamin did not get into the visit. He was pretty much fussy the entire time. Before we left, I fed him in the car. Jasper and Drew played in the farm for a little while but still got back to the car before Benjamin was finished. Jasper loves sitting in the front seat of the car and this day enjoyed hanging out the window.
