Summer--Week 1

We took a field trip to Wheeler Farm the first week of June and it was awesome! I was quite impressed with it. The animals were lively and easy to observe. There was a ton of land to explore with a beautiful rushing river going right through the property. Ducks and geese waddled around everywhere and loved to be fed. There were a bunch of old tractors and wagons to look at and sit on. And they did a great job educating kids with posters, charts, and exhibits of how farms work, of tractors through the years, and how cows are milked. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed a picnic on the beautiful grounds after exploring.



Emma found a goose feather (notice it in her hands below) that has become a treasure to her.
