Favorite Places

Yesterday I took the kids and one of my dear friends to one of my favorite places- CERES. Ivy and I always stop here on the way home from my Nanna's house in Pascoe Vale for a pot of chai. It makes us so happy and relaxed and is a great source of inspiration for my 'projects'. We came here especially to show our friends and have a look at their composting systems for ideas for our school and our waste management.
Tyler crawled up onto a rather large ledge (a first) which even shocked him a bit! He stopped, looked back, shook his head in disbelief, and crawled on to the sandpit!


So then we visited Collingwood Childrens Farm. A place I haven't been to before but enjoyed it in the beautiful winters sun we had. The kids loved the animals, but me, I loved the community garden plots. I love the organised chaos of them. The different varieties of vegetables grown and the recipes that they will become a part of. It always makes me wonder. I loved my dear friends face when she saw a little old man come in and pick some silver beet from his plot and tuck it into the basket on his bicycle and peddle off home. She was truly amazed and I was rapt that I shared it with her. She had no idea that this little world existed. What a beautiful day it was.
