Pepper Farm Field Trip

Melissa's class went on a second field trip, this time to one of her classmate's family pepper farm - Merom Farms / Greenhouse Delight.
The three kindergarten classes were split into their groups and went between stations. First station for Melissa's class was a ladybug craft...
Next station - completely pepper farm unrelated - was one of the owner's race car...
After learning about the car and the gear needed to drive in one, the kids were given the opportunity to inspect the car...
Next station the kids were brought into the greenhouse where the pepper plants all were. They learned about how they fed the plants...
And how they protect the plants from bad insects... here they are being shown a box filled with ladybugs...
After all the learning, everyone was treated to a hotdog lunch!


It was a surprisingly interesting & fun field trip, and we were pleased the weather cooperated and didn't rain on us :)
