Reece - lower elementary

Today at the farm we measured the garlic.  The tallest plant was 33 inches tall!  Upper elementary took care of the chickens.  We weeded the snapdragons.  I found moss that looked like fairy houses.  We had banana muffins for a special birthday snack for Farmer Edwin.  After snack we planted sugar snap peas in our garden bed.  We went back to the barn and Farmer Edwin told about chicken treats and chicken no no's.  Cooked potatoes are chicken treats.  Dried beans, avocado skins and pits are chicken no no's.  Chickens like people food.  They eat pineapple and cheese but they don't eat sugary foods.

I saw the bee hives.  We are going to visit them soon.  I had a great day at the farm!
