A Full Day of Tanner's -- With Good Friends

Years ago we discovered this fun treasure beneath the wind turbines outside of Speer, IL! It has been a favorite day trip ever since. I love going in the fall and testing all the fresh apples, and bringing home big bags with the intentions of applesauce and apple crisp and apple pies. A few weeks ago we took the trip up to Tanner's with some sweet friends, Ashley and Ryley Johnson. 

It is fun for most of the family -- with a petting zoo and a huge playground. A favorite is always the sand "bin," and on festival days you can catch pony rides and barrel rides. The gift shop is a favorite for the shopper in the family, with everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to dips and baked goods. There are Christmas ornaments and even toys for purchase. And, if you are hungry, you will love the lunches they serve. Delicious!! And the kids' meals come with apple cider and an apple cider doughnut!
