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

Milk Chocolate is Better Than Dark Chocolate

Imagine going to the store because you’re in the mood for chocolates. But when you get to the store, you see so many options. There’s pink chocolate, white chocolate, salted caramel, unsweetened chocolate, etc. You have narrowed it down to two choices. Milk chocolate or dark chocolate. That’s why I’m here today, to help you make the right choice, the best choice.  To start, I conducted a poll. A poll to determine how many people will choose milk chocolate over dark chocolate. I had 184 responses to the form, and out of the 184 people who responded, milk chocolate won with a landslide of 133 people choosing milk chocolate!

An anonymous person said their reason for liking milk chocolate more, and I quote was “Milk chocolate is sweeter and makes my taste buds happy!” A key reason why milk chocolate is the best is because of its sweet taste. It is not overwhelmingly sweet or bitter in any way, u...
