We had a lovely morning at the farm on Friday. We noticed all sorts of interesting things on the way and Hazel taught us all about the harvesting of crops at the farm. We learned the difference between straw and hay, how crops were harvested and saw a real combine harvester. We looked at grain and how it is mashed for the animals to eat at the farm. Hazel showed us the big food mixer for cows and how the food could be measured to make tasty food for the cattle. We smelt silage, got licked by cows and saw Tom's very cheeky pigs! Many thanks to Hazel and Phillippa for showing us around and teaching us so much about harvest time on the farm!
