Terry's Berries Farm

Jared's preschool class went to Terry's Berries Farm yesterday as a Family Event (meaning siblings are included). It was a NEAT place. Kind of mucky because of all the rain we've had, but not horrible.


Here's Jared in front of the signs of things to do


Jared and Cooper checking out the pumpkins out front


Loading into the "wagon" to head out to the activities


First activity? Feed the chickens! The chickens knew what was coming and swarmed the fence line!


The kids all got chunks of bread to rip apart and throw to the chickens


Then they got to dig for potatoes (three each!)


Still digging!


"I found a potato for me to have mom!"


Then they got to head to the strawberry fields and hunt out the last red strawberries on the plants


A little sour, Jared?


They also got to pick raspberries and choose pumpkins but Jared wasn't cooperating for pictures so I don't have any of him doing those things.

Here's Connor with a pumpkin (I've got my hand underneath holding the pumpkin because he kept dropping it and I wanted a picture!)


Here's what Connor thought about Daddy picking him up and carrying him (to keep him out of the mud puddles on our way back to the entrance)


At the end, each kid got to take home two apples. Connor ended up with one at some point and I didn't think it would hurt to let him carry it around. I did NOT expect him to actually EAT it!


he really took a bite!


And then he got ahold of ANOTHER apple (sneaky baby) and plopped himself down on the ground and went to town on both of them


We had a really nice time, and the rain held off all morning for us.
