Pumpkin Patch October 25, 2011
Posted by Ideal School in Events.trackback
A favourite annual school field trip to Oldfield Orchard took place last Thursday, Oct 20th. The outing included many different activities, such as touring the store to see all the fruits and vegetables grown at the farm and saying hello to the goats, donkeys and pigs. Before going on a walk through the hen house, everyone was invited to choose an apple from the orchard for a quick snack.
The tractor-pulled wagon was a fun and bumpy ride over to feed the sheep and as an added bonus 
this year, farmer Raphael introduced his brand new flock of baby chicks.
Everyone was treated to freshly pressed apple juice and a piece of homemade apple crisp, while farmer Raphael answered questions. The wagon ride then headed over to the pumpkin patch where the day ended with the kids choosing their very own pumpkin to take home with them.
With the mild temperature and the fall sun shining down, the afternoon was enjoyed by everyone who attended.
