Field Trip #3 - the Lavender Farm




We went to the Lavender Farm yesterday for our field trip. We learned all about a working farm and how great lavender is....and really how many uses it has for everyday life! We also learned about the importance of bees: in addition to be very prevalent among the lavender, the farm also has a number of hives on site! There is also a small petting zoo there where the boys were able to interact with a lot of animals. We also found a new word for our funniest word list - 'sachets' which the boys 'won' filled with lavender for finding 4 leaf clovers on the farm!

From Billy: Yesterday we went to the lavender farm. They have animals and lavender. We went into the bunny cage and watched the bee hive. We also went into the duck pond where the ducks were fighting....we yelled, 'duck fight'! They also had really mean white geese that I chased into the waters.

From JJ:I went to the lavender farm. I fed the bunnies and the little horses. They drooled. It was gross. But they were cute.
