APPLES EVERYWHERE!!

We had a wonderful time at Chapin's Apple Orchard.  Not only did we pick apples, but we also learned a lot about how they grow.  We learned how important bees are to apple trees and even saw an active colony at work!  We used some apples to make our very own apple cider using a machine called an apple press.   It was delicious!   After a picnic lunch at the orchard, we headed back to school.  We brought lots of apples with us and we will use them for some special projects next week.   What a great day we had!
