We were able to visit Rancho La Luna one sunny afternoon to see their working farm. The organic farm is only six years old, but they have an incredible facility which the owner Alex is eager to share. He let the girls visit with the lambs, goat kids, chickens, pigs, and bunnies which are raised on the property. They have amazing organic produce and a restaurant that feeds groups from the gardens on site. The girls' favourite animals were the two week old bunnies and they were aghast when Lucie bought some organic rabbit meat. This was a great opportunity to explain that beef is the cute calf in the field, chicken is the hen pecking at your feet, and pork is that adorable piglet in the pen. I think Heidi is considering life as a vegetarian, but nobody loves bacon like our little girl!
