Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm


Hope you enjoy the photos from our trip to the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm. These photos were taken on Friday April 24 when I took the boys to the farm on our way home from Portland. We loved it. I wish we had gone earlier in the day, I could have stayed a whole day if I had the chance. They were having their festival, but we didn't really participate in any of their activities. We just enjoyed walking in the fields and looking at all the beautiful flowers. The boys did have a little bit of time to play in their playground.

Mount Hood was visible to the east. Lovely. When Tad and I visited the farm 2 years ago it was not as perfect of a day. On Friday we enjoyed the sunny and mild weather.


One of the "wilder" varieties.

I think these pink tulips called Judith Leyster are some of my favorites. Especially when they are planted so densely.

A view of the "mix" field.

Lovely purple.

A budding photographer. (I also let him use my good camera for a few shots.)

I loved this lily shaped pink tulip and thought it especially pretty with the sun glowing in it.


Hope you have enjoyed this tiptoe through the tulips with me.

Blessings,

Sharon
