First day back at Ducklings after a lovely 2 weeks off with my family 🥰 and we headed straight to one of our favourite places… the allotment!
The first thing Elliot wanted to do was pick an apple from our tree, he thinks they’re the best apples he’s ever tasted! 😂🍎
We spent the morning digging in the mud, doing some weeding and checking in on the horses in the neighbouring field across from our allotment. I love that they come say hi 👋🏻
Then we went into the growing house and couldn’t believe how much was ready to pick! 🤩 Lots of raspberries, green beans and tomatoes, so we all got stuck in harvesting them… with a few raspberries eaten along the way of course! 😋 We even picked some lovely plums from our plum tree too.
We finished off with a picnic lunch at the allotment. 🧺💚
Such a lovely first day back, fresh air, muddy hands, homegrown fruit and veg and lots of exploring. Exactly how we like our days learning through play 🥰
