Farmers Maket


Welcome to the Escuelita Farmers Market



We traded, exchanged, ate, cooked and had fun mingling with each other at our Escuelita Farmers Market.  

 
We created prints with chard leaves.
We cooked in the sandbox.

 
We also discovered that snails like to eat the chard and kale that we grow! 
 
 
Friends from Patito's, Primaria and Elementary came to visit our Farmers Market.



We harvested kale and lettuce from our garden. Our community harvested vegetables from their gardens and shared them with our class.    
We cleaned and washed our fruits and veggies together.

 
We prepared and pretended to sell salad to our fiends.

 
We ate colorful salads together.

 

"Vegetables make us grow big!"



At the end of the week we met our friends at the Saturday's Davis Farmers Market!

From Kernel to Corn Tortillas!!

Farming is important to us! In our Escuelita class we are realizing that farms and farm animals produce food and other things that we use every day. 

"Plants grow in the soil. Soil is dirt in the garden."
"Farmers grow food in the soil too!"
"We grow plants like farmers in our garden."

 

What kind of food grows on a farm?
"Corn grows on a farm."
"Hay!"
"Pumpkins grow on a farm in Davis."
"Lemons grow on a farm."
"Hay is what horses eat."
"Cows like flowers that grow on the farm."

"Corn grows on the farm! Taller then me. Like, it's really tall. I'll show you how tall. As big as my daddy."
