Farm Fun

For a field trip in October, we took the kids to a farm! The Duffield's have a home behind an orchard where they keep dogs, horses, chickens, pigs and goats. It was most fun for me to just see the kids act like kids. When Annette got out of the car, it was like she instinctively knew that this was a place she could relax and play. Kate Duffield gave us a tour of the property, including a giant barn that was in the process of being built.

The kids were amazed how close they could get to the animals! After getting a good look, several of the kids had interesting questions to ask such as, "Why do goats have horns?" and other questions about parts of the animals.
