Sarah's kindergarten class took its first field trip of the year yesterday! Her daddy and several other moms and dads got to go along with them to the Pine Tree Apple Orchard in White Bear Lake. Here are the kids sitting in a 100-year-old apple storage barn waiting for a quick presentation on the apple-growing process.
Julie, our tour guide, showed us how the apple pickers get the apples off of the trees. This particular orchard had around 15,000 apple trees growing there.
The kids got a quick look at the apples going through the sorting line.
Then we had lunch, followed by a special treat of fresh apple cider and apple donuts provided by the orchard. Here's Sarah eating lunch with her friends, Edison and Hope. These were the three kids in "Mr. Gordon's" group.
Just before we headed back to school, the kids took advantage of a quick photo op.
