Miss Virginia was back today to teach us all about fruit and vegetable farms. We learned about the variety of fruits and vegetables that grow on Vermont farms. Our class is taking a closer look at apple farming this week. We learned all the work farmers have to do to keep their trees healthy. We even had a student seed demonstration!
We are also learning how farmers sell their products to earn money to support their family and farm. Our focus for our farming unit is the economic cycle of Buy, Produce, Sell! Today we tried our hand at making a product from apples. We used the apple peeler to prep our apples for homemade applesauce! Tomorrow we will put our apples in the crockpot and make our own applesauce! Yum!
