There were other families from our church who went as well.
Mr. Hodges took us on a hay ride through his fields.
We bounced in an inflated bouncy house.
Mr. Hodges is the son of a son of a farmer. Their farm in Charlotte has been around for almost 200 years. They started out as a cotton farm, then later became a dairy farm. Now, he says, they raise horses, cattle, and grow pumpkins, hay, sourgum and vegetables. He shared his heart about how farming is going away. Without farms, he said, you'd all be hungry, naked, and have no where to live!
The horse behind Mr. Hodges is called "choco" which is short for chocolate. Josh thought he was named after us!
Sarah was glad to have her good friend, Madeline, to share this experience with.
After our tour, we got to choose pumpkins from this cart. I think we all had a great time!
