Beautiful farm!

My family and I had an excellent time at the Thompson’s farm! We stayed a few weeks, hanging out with their cows and chickens! Their eggs are fantastic and so beautiful I almost didn’t want to crack the shells! The family is kind and great hosts, definitely contact them to spend time on their farm!
