Grade 3's farm visit

The grade 3 classes took the large school bus to visit Mr. DeGroot's farm. We saw and learned so much! We saw how bees made honeycombs (natural structures) to store their honey plus we got to taste the sweet, delicious honey. Mr. DeGroot also showed us the chickens, ducks, pigs and cows. The best part was watching how the apples we brought with us, were squeezed and pressed in the apple press, and how this produced fresh apple juice. Each of us had a glass of our own fresh apple juice. It was very yummy! We learned that some of our food comes from these animals as well as from fruit trees and vegetable gardens. Most importantly, we saw how important it is to take care of God's creation through careful, sustainable farming
