Bryant Farm

We had the pleasure of visiting the Bryant Family Farm on Friday. Several weekends ago my SIL, Alicia, and I attended a farm expo. Farmers from a 100 mile radius of the city came in to meet us city folk. We had the opportunity to learn more about their organic practices and connect with them to buy excellent product.

After meeting the Bryants, we were sure we wanted to eat some of their food. A couple of weekends later and an easy 45 minute road trip brought us to their front door. We spent two hours getting to know the Bryants and saw the love, care and hard work they and their five children invest in their land and animals every day. We even met the goats that supplied our milk - now that's cool!

This morning we feasted on eggs, milk and sausage all from the Bryant Farm. It was all fresh, delicious and organic - YUMO! It's wonderful to support a local farming family and great to know exactly where the food you feed your children came from.

I brought the camera but left the memory stick at home; can you believe it?! Elle talked about our visit non-stop days before, so I am very grateful for the shots the Bryants took for us with their awesome Canon. We had baby goats sucking on our fingers, held fluffy, yellow baby chicks, grass-fed the milking goats, chased a few chickens, fell in love with the baby jersey cow and eyed an Angus that we'd like to eat maybe later this year.

The biggest blessing of it all, the Bryants are Christians and the two hours together with Dana and her children was sweet fellowship! Their kindness and generosity sent us home with a little extra of this and that and we are thrilled about our new relationship with them. Isn't it neat how life paths cross, connect and intertwine? How grateful I am for their passion and dedication to raise healthy food that impacts our lives.
