Barn and bench


I was looking through my archives (don't worry, Toronto is a little greener than this these days!) when I came upon this lovely barn and bench. I thought it was worth showing, even if the photo was taken back in March. It comes to you from the Riverdale Farm - a real, working farm in the middle of the city. They also host a farmer's market on certain days of the week and alot of the produce is organic. It's another nice place to get out and about in Toronto.

To see more barns, visit Barn Charm.

I like that place... perfect for photos, good veggies and a place to sit and enjoy the view.

Now, that's one really cool barn, is it made of logs? A log barn? How cool is that!!! Great fence & bench to boot

This is a beautiful shot!

That's different. Where in the city is it located? We have community gardens but nothing you could call a farm.

Nice looking spot.

@Bob - it's in the part of the city known as Cabbagetown. It's just across the street from the Toronto Necropolis cemetery, which used to be the Potter's Field.

It sure doesn't appear to be in the city here!

Love the weathered look. Very nice composition.

Hes, the composition is Greta, and so is the place.

I hate the new word verification. Since I have trouble reading those "words", I am assuming others do too.
