After the Harvest: Carrots

Harvest is always an exciting time. Much of the excitement of harvest comes about when the produce is taken into the kitchen and it is time to decide what they are going to make from their harvest.

These photos are so beautiful and we are happy to share them with our readers. They have so enjoyed making and icing these carrot cakes and they show them off with such delight.

So precious!!!!!
