It was one of those really good weekends that you wind down from feeling refreshed and ready for a new week, you know what I mean? I got to spend an inordinate amount of time with my husband, drinking tea and watching movies and taking naps and sometimes crying because life still feels so funny right now. But it was all still good.
Saturday morning we took a little trip to Boggy Creek Farm, one of my favorite spots in town for homegrown, organic produce and other fun seasonal treats, like strawberry essence tea. If you’re in Austin and haven’t been by Boggy Creek Farm yet, I recommend you get there asap! Such a fun little place. I read in the Edible Austin publication for spring that this little farm house was built in 1840, and people have been born in it and people have died in it, and it’s still a part of the land there—a part of the history. And I just think that’s so neat!
Here are some pictures from the outing…

PS – It’s sort of interesting to look back on this post I wrote about Boggy Creek Farm a year and a half ago… things sure have changed around here since then! Ha!
PPS – Clearly Megan and I were on the same wavelength this weekend! What are the odds?!
Happy Monday. :)
What a cool place to shop for produce. Definitely beats the grocery store :)
ReplyDeleteI love all the history and charm that farmhouse has in your photos!
