It comes from the back room in produce department at the store,” is a pretty typical answer from city kids today.
But did you ever see the look in a kid’s eye, or the smile on their face when they picked some beans, dug up a potato, or pulled an ear of corn from the stalk?
The first thing little kids say to me when they run down the stairs at our house, faces aglow, is something like, “Can we pull some onions?” or “Can we dig some potatoes?”
I wouldn’t trade those moments for anything.
