Being from the Antelope Valley I am used to the Poppy Festival every year, but that happens miles from any actual poppies, this happened at the farm. Woodshoe Farms is about a 45 minute drive from us, which was partially freeway and partially back roads that gave a nice view of some old school farmhouses. It really is a gorgeous area, especially a little ways off the beaten path.
When we first arrived at Woodshoe Farms we debated on getting our money back and just going home, as their didn't appear to be any Tulips in bloom. Turns out the front of the farm gets used to grow grass, a quarter mile walk or so later we came to the actual tulip fields and wow. The amount and variety of tulips was really breathtaking. As a bonus a nice clear day made for some pretty views of Mt Hood in the distance as well.
It was a nice way to spend a Saturday with the girls, and also another notch in my proverbial bedpost of wanting to get out of the house more.
So without further ado, some photos from the day:
Tulips are one of my most favorite flowers ever! Looks gorgeous!
