a local farm and vineyard

... is a lovely place to spend a Saturday afternoon.

:: picking muscadines and scuppernongs

 

 

:: enjoying the bounty

 

 

:: anticipating eggs in October

 

:: cooling off with homemade ice cream in this shady spot

 

Also in season at this farm are butternut squash, persimmon, and all kinds of pears.  We stopped by another sweet farm for some handcrafted blue cheese and when paired with the pears (and figs) is absolutely to die for.
