Bushels of Fun!

This week we went apple picking at Riverview Farm! It was a perfect day for us to have a fall adventure.

We learned about how cider is made when we arrived. Everyone was amazed to see the apples go through the machine only to come out shredded and mushy. After that they were pressed and we watched as the juice from the apples seeped out. I think all of us wished we could try a sample!

Then it was time to look at the apple trees! We learned what the people at the orchard do to keep the trees and apples safe from animals and bugs. There were many for us to enjoy!

We picked and we picked!

We filled our bags and enjoyed a tasty snack from the orchard! We are going to make apple sauce next week!
