All five kindergarten classes recently visited Bowman's Orchard earlier this fall to learn about the production of local produce and life on the farm. Students learned about how  learning about how apples are picked, stored, and refrigerated. They toured the packing house and storage facility and also learned about daily life on the farm. They were also able to feed and pet the different animals that live on the farm.

Students had an opportunity to interact with various farm animals and learn about the different roles these animals play in life on the farm
