Trip to the Farm
My class went to a farm. An old man was there who told us what it is like to live on 21
the farm. He walked us to the barn. In the barn he let us pet a big horse. The horse 41
takes the man over the open land to round up his cows. 53
We did not get to see the cows. They were far away eating grass. At this farm the 71
cows do not give milk. They are sold for meat. 81
Next to the barn was a pig pen. The pigs were tan and brown. They did not 98
smell too good! The man said that he sells the pigs so that we can have ham, pork, 116
and ribs. 118
The last stop we made was at the hen house. The hens give eggs every day. The 135
old man does not sell the eggs or the hens. He eats them! The man fixed our class 153
some fresh eggs, too. It was a fun trip. 162
