Apple Picking

Around the end of August my family and another family went apple picking at Kuipers Family Farm. It was the perfect time to go, not too hot, not too cold. A new attraction they had were Sunflower Fields. There were so many beautiful sunflowers. My favorite part about the sunflower fields  ðŸŒ» were that each person could pick a sunflower to take home. My little sister's flower was tiny, while mine was medium sized. Whenever we go there we always get fresh donuts from the farm. I would say doing going here is a yearly tradition. Picking fresh apples from the apple trees, and eating them is scrumptious. At the end of our visit all the kids go on a train ride across the apple trees, tunnels, and beautiful flower fields. 

Facts about many farms
  • Many times fruits are picked earlier than they should be or have been sprayed with chemicals, but at farms you can pick them fresh without any chemicals
  • Farmers will have to grow 70 percent more food than what is currently produced to feed the world’s growing population by 2050
  • An acre of land is about the same size as a football field
  • Before the twentieth century, the typical American family lived on a small farm. They raised almost everything they ate and sold their remaining crops and/or animals

Slime

What is slime? Slime is  consisted of a non-toxic viscous, squishy and oozy green. Depending on how it is made it can be sticky, smooth, warm, stretchy colorful, and glittery. I personally love smooth and stretchy types. I do not like smelly ones though. They don't smell good and make me feel blegh . Slime is a fun thing to make if you are at home and want to do a fun activity. You can make it yourself, buy kits in stores, or buy ready-made ones.
