We had an incredible fall day at the farm. When we arrived at Grisamore Farm we seperated into two groups and went off on our way! Our class started by touring the farm and the animals (mules, chicken, sheep, goat ,and a miniature horse) then we walked down through the apple orchards where we picked an apple to eat...right off the tree. It was a juicy delicious apple as you can see! We continued on our way and stopped to see some sheep grazing way back in the pasture behind some orchards. We ended up by the wagon and had our turn on the hay wagon ride. We saw orchards and fields of all differnt kinds of fruit. The ride wasn't complete without getting off to pick our very own pumpkin from the pumpkin patch! We got back on the wagon for a ride back to the farm where we ate our lunch in the pavillion. After lunch we had a chance to go inside and see the apple press. Unfortunately they weren't making cider today!
We went through a small c0rn maze with pumpkin people in it and looked at the animals one more time. We did happen upon a "pallet" and were able to squeeze our whole class on a pallet...with a little team work that is! (in case you didn't know...it is "P" week!) It was a great day on the farm...one in which we were very proud of our class. They did a great job enjoying the day,being good listeners and courtesy kids!
