TANAKA FARMS

We went on the annual Tanaka Farms field trip with Chase's pre-school class. This is always a favorite field trip for all the kids. Here is Chase and Olivia:

One of the highlights of the day is going on a wagon ride pulled by a tractor. They take you over to a petting zoo area. This is always a fun time. Chase is not a bit scared by the animals and loves to pet, hug and try to feed the animals. Here he is with a willing goat.

Max came along on the trip.

The whole preschool class.

Here the kids are climbing to the top of a hay tower. I love this picture of Chase!

Another highlight of the trip is the chance to pick vegetables. Each child gets to pick 3 radishes, 3 carrots, 3 green beans, and 3 onions. Look at those HUGE radishes! We made some soup that night and put in his vegetables.


The deal is every child gets to pick a pumpkin off a vine to take home. The only rule is that the CHILD has to be able to carry his/her own pumpkin. Chase really wants a big one so here he is trying to carry out the biggest one he can.
