To the Farm!

Today, in a convoy of cars and church vans, we went on a field trip to a farm – not just any farm, mind you – "Uncle" Russell Vollmer's farm (www.vollmerfarm.com). It's just outside Bunn, NC in a beautiful country setting. Now this is a FARM! Not only does Uncle Russell have pick-your-own organic strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries, but he has chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, a donkey named Roscoe and a newborn calf named Peanuts.

But that's not all! He has something called the Back Forty Playground, where we found over two dozen outdoor fun and fitness attractions, including the Great Pumpkin Jump, the largest "Jumping Pillow" in North Carolina! We also took an amazing hayride, "milked" a cow and visited the Pumpkin Playground, where you can pick-your-own.

When I was a kid, school was NEVER like this; how sad! But anyhow, take a tour with us by video and see for yourself…
