Tantre Farm

 The first thing that one of my students said yesterday morning, when he walked into my classroom was: "I am sooooooooo excited about going to the farm that I can't concentrate". It was a day full of hustle/ bustle:)

Yesterday afternoon the whole school went on a field trip to Tantre farm.We are getting ready for our big event- The Feast, which is coming up this Sunday. So we went to harvest vegetables. The children were thrilled to follow Deb, the leader/ owner of the farm and April one of the helpers. They were very careful not to step on those precious vegetables and herbs and freshly ploughed soil. They were extremely happy to taste and smell many special herbs. If you ask them what their favorite one is, I'm sure they will tell you. 

Words cannot describe how excited they were to pull out the carrots! They fed some of the animals as well. They were each given a bag to put their treasures in. Some children were so eager to fill their bags in, that they were pulling out grass, stones, leaves, anything that their hands could  reach for. It was great to soak in a moment with the simple pleasures of life!
