Flowers and Rice

Recently we were invited to a Farmer's Market and field of flowers.  The flowers will be turned under after blooming to prepare the soil for the rice fields.  The fields will then be flooded with water and the rice planted.  Next week we have been invited to plant rice in the same field.  But first, here are pictures of the field of flowers and friends.

We also were invited to make bookmarks with pressed flowers.  Here's Laura and Fin "over the shoulder" hard at work and some bookmarks we made:
