Trip to The Farm!!

We went to Green Meadows Farm (I think that's the name) to learn where our food came from. I learn it came from Queens... JK! We got to feed the hens with the weeds we pick up. We also got to pet the goats. The farm was really big!! I learn that the soil in which we plant our vegetables and fruits in have animal poop in it... :( Ewwwwww!!!! My dad said that's the best soil and the veggies and fruits will taste ten times better than the grocery ones. But.... poop!!! Just imagine it!! Pig poop in your bowl of veggie soup (king of random...)!!! Overall it was really fun. Also pulling the weeds was really fun because Sam decide to have a hay fight. Also it was kind of weird that some of the hay was hot (the temperature not the way you thinking about it...). Also it was weird that the in the center of the hay the temperature is over 100 degree. The cultural event they did was also fun even though we didn't get to attend... :( The dance was really good and so was the beat of the drum!!! LLLLLaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! I totally fail at singing!! *Smiles*

Field Trip to Green Market!!

We went to the Farmer's Market on Union Square (I call it the Green Market because when I went there, I only saw healthy and green food.) We met with Sara and she show us around the market. I was really interested because I got to see so many different types of foods, mostly vegetables and fruits. There was this one lady (I forgot her name...) who was really into learning about different types of really good tasting veggies and fruits. It was really funny, especially when she talked about the tiny yellow tomatoes. I'm personally not a big fan of tomatoes but after hearing her, I try it... It... actually taste really sweet!! Also we went on a treasure hunt for different types of food grown on the farm. I really like the treasure hunt because I got to eat and drink free foods (samples). This one lady gave me the evil eyes when I went to get a sample of Italian Sausage!! Hey, It samples so I can still get even if I'm not buying anything!!! Anyway the trip was really fun. I got to learn more about food and it's showing of when I go on grocery shopping.:3
