Herritage Park

Brandon's class took a very fun field trip to "Herritage Park." First thing was a tractor/wagon ride through the orange grove!
Brandon, Jacob and Kenton.

Each child chose an orange, then they washed it, cut it...

and juiced it! Yikes! A cut on your finger + orange juice = OUCH!
It was yummy!

London loved it too!
After they made OJ and drank it up, they took the rind over to another table to make an awesome creation. They got to put pretty "Johnny Jump Up" flowers (dirt and roots too!) into the rind. They were told to take it home and plant it in the ground (rind and all), and the orange peel would make great food to feed the growing flowers. So fun!
After that they got to pick some oranges right off the trees using this cool "picking" device.
Great work London!
The day was so much fun! Brandon wants to go back and pick more oranges to make juice at home. :) We planted his flowers in the backyard and he checks on them several times a day!
