My camera was lost for a few days ~ luckily I finally found it :)
We had a great trip to the Gale Woods Farm in Minnetrista last Friday. The children had many great opportunities to see things on a farm up close. We started the day off "cooking" some
buttermilk ranch dressing. All of the children eagerly picked a piece of lettuce growing in the green house to taste the dressing. (I am always amazed at the children's willingness to try eating lettuce because they were involved in the cooking of the dressing!) We also got to taste asparagus as well- again EVERYONE tried it eagerly! As you will see in the photos below we got to see pigs turning soil, pet & feed the sheep. The children loved being able to pet a cow, chicks, chickens and a farm cat. We enjoyed a picnic lunch on the farm as well. A BIG THANK YOU to Steve's Mom for helping out on this field trip.
**My photos are not uploading after numerous attempts ~ I will try to figure out the problem & upload them later!
Be sure to check back for photos at a later date. Sorry!
