I love going to the pumpkin farm this time of year. The sights, the smells, the fun activities for children, and the food!! :)
We went to Kuiper's Family Farm in Maple Park. The property has a pumpkin farm on one side of the road, and a giant tree farm, apple orchard, and bakery on the other side. I walk in to the smell of all the wonderful scents being freshly baked on premise: pies, apple cider doughnuts, cider, local honey, caramel-dipped apples, and freshly mixed fudge varieties.
I snuck away from the family for awhile to run across the street to the bakery barn!
I waited in a very long line at the donut and pie counter and ask for half a dozen. A maple-glazed one instantly goes in my mouth - moist from the apple cider & full of sweetness. I want to try every flavour. So yummy. I took them outside for a quick photograph before I presented them to my family and told them they must try them.
I continued to wander around, noticing all that is charming and enjoying the picturesque views of the rolling fields of Christmas trees. So much beauty to take in.







Yummy!

Oh mercy, those donuts look good! An apple cider one, sounds delish. I just made white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and I must say, they're quite yummy. Your photos are so pretty, Lara. You've really captured the feeling of Autumn. Love the light. By the way, do you have a filter on your lens? I never like my outdoor photos and I'm thinking I need a filter. Hope you have a great weekend :)
