Day 21

Today we participated in a crop mob at the Piedmont Biofarm. Basically a bunch of people showed up at the farm and helped harvest sweet potatoes and peanuts.

We started with the sweet potatoes, but we found that the kids did better with peanuts. After the peanut plants were pulled, our job was to dig around for any that were left behind.

My youngest was cracking me up, because even after gleaning several buckets full of peanuts, he was excited every single time he found another one. "Oooh, look, I found a peanut!" He also wanted to know why the peanuts were so dirty. You gotta love four-year-olds.
