This week Jackson and I went on a trip to The Urban Farm. Located right in Denver, the non-profit farm works on "improving the lives of children living in high-risk, urbanized neighborhoods by helping to create a sense of positive self-regard and self-reliance, a strong work ethic, and hope." How wonderful!
I have heard about this farm for a while, and was excited when my mom's group scheduled a tour there. It was a gorgeous spring day and we were both very excited. As we waited for the tour to start, Jackson got to meet and pet his first animal...what a cute bunny!
We then walked along and fed sheep and goats...
We also saw donkeys, cows and two giant pigs. The farm offered pony rides at the end, but I didn't want to press my luck with Jackson, who was exhausted. We'll have to come back... I heard they sell farm fresh eggs on the weekends.
