I drove out to the farm this week to do a photo shoot for an article on sustainable farming, and took little Strawberry Girl and her best friend along for the ride. As I worked, the girls played with the farmer's tiny daughter and wandered the yard and barn on a lovely summer day.
But at the end of those two hours, as the sun had begun to set and
the tractors were gathering up the last bales of hay , the three of us
hiked up behind the freshly mown field to hunt for wild orchids. And
deep in the tall grasses - in a place anyone might have walked right
past - was the bounty of fairies. Wild strawberries!
Farmer Oester swiftly bent down and popped one in his mouth with a contagious grin. "Looky here!"
We picked and tasted, and carried home a copious handful for dinner.
And the fairies smiled on us.
