Our Visit to Riverdale Farm!
Advice had such a lovely morning visiting Toronto's Riverdale Farm with friends, Ashley Dempster and Amanda Blakely with their son's Jasper and Atticus. We toured the pathways of the butterfly-herb-flower and vegetable gardens and visited with all the friendly farm animals.
If you don't know already, Riverdale farm has a fabulous Farmer's Market every Tuesday from 3pm-7pm. Just outside the main gates you can find a variety of locally grown Produce, baked goods and more.
To support the ongoing operations of Riverdale Farm you can donate through the Toronto Parks and Trees Foundation.

Visiting Wovenplay in New York
Wovenplay is one of our inspirations and always has been. Based in Brooklyn, NY, we visited the studio and chatted about the New York Public Library's incredible picture library, Japanese cottons and hand dying.
Wovenplay designs, sews, dyes, and prints creative couture for the everyday artist and adventurer. The beauty of the collection is captured in its simplicity and how well we see our children when they wear it. Or insist on wearing it. The rendering of the past into the present means that swimsuits have zippers that won't rust in seawater or chlorine, tutus have proper closures for dancing and jumping, the feather headbands combine glass beading with vintage buttons.
Wovenplay believes in designing vibrant, playful pieces that combine quality of color and texture with the innately imaginative spirit of childhood. Their clothes are fanciful and modern, with a foundation of inspiration from decades passed.
