Hello!

*We want to send a HUGE thank you to all of our families. We received all of the surveys with one day to spare! Awesome job!

In large group, we talked about how farmers contribute to our community. Every Monday, we get our weekly Purple Porch Co-op (http://www.purpleporch.coop/) delivery. We receive fresh vegetables and fruits for our program. We linked this to our story about harvesting. In the story, we read about different tools used to harvest along with learning about farmers!

We made a web and ideas started shooting out left and right. A pretty detailed list of food was made and friends talked about how farmers help US!

“We always go to the farmer’s market and get food that’s good for us.”

“Farmers grow cucumbers which you can make into pickles.”

“My mom said that cows drink milk and make milk!”

Here are a few pictures from the rest of our day!

Breakfast– Homemade oatmeal pancakes and cantaloupe.

Lunch– Organic brown rice with chicken and shredded cheese, bananas, and fresh broccoli.

PM snack– Whole wheat bagels with butter.

Wee Sprouts– Fresh broccoli.

Have a lovely night.
