The North Georgia Mountains are always so beautiful, but the fall season is the prime time to go for a visit. The weather is cool and there are always festivals, pumpkin patches, and all things fall to enjoy! We met up with Andy, Janelle and the boys at a sunflower patch Janelle had told us about. It is 30 acres of sunflowers that is used primarily for people to visit and take pictures. It was only a $5 entry fee/per person. We (at-least janelle and I think) definitely got our $$ worth!
After we finished with pictures at the sunflower farm, we headed over to Burt's Pumpkin Farm - So much fun! They had a TON of pumpkins - all shapes and sizes. The really big ones were selling for $60 - so crazy! I wanted to buy one just for the seeds(to cook and eat). They also had snacks and treats to enjoy. Our favorite was a fried pumpkin-cheesecake pie - Yummo! There was no entrance fee, so you just paid for things you wanted to do or purchase. We walked around and enjoyed some treats and took some pictures.
There was also a local Marble festival, so we stopped by and walked around the different booths. Josh did a few fun activities they had set up for the kids. There was a big pile of marble pieces that anyone could browse through and take home. Josh thought it was fun to dig dig through and said his piece looked like a piece of pizza. After we finished walking through the festival we made one last stop on our way home. It's one of our favorite places to visit - Jaemor Farms. They have a huge fresh produce area, as well as homemade treats for sale. It was busier than we'd ever seen it, so we didn't stay too long, but we did buy our favorite kettle corn and boiled peanuts for the ride home!
It was a perfect day in the mountains♥♥
