The four-year-old from Carmel was one of 350 children who, with their parents, converged on the Tilly Foster Farm last Saturday for an old-fashioned Easter egg hunt.

The event was the first of its kind for the farm, and organizers quickly realized the hunt would have to be expanded next year, since more than 1,500 holiday goodies were gone in no time flat.

Gorgeous weather helped attract the large crowd to the farm. The sunshine and blue skies continued throughout the holiday weekend.
