Last Friday I went with Ryan's class on their field trip to the Jones Creek Apple Orchard near Lyman. I'd never heard of it, but it was a really neat place- they grow 120 varieties of apples! Of course, it rained most of the time, but the kiddos didn't care a bit!
Here's Ryan class all lined up for a quick photo op!

Telea, the gal (owner?) at the orchard who was our field trip leader... she was SO great with the kids!

It may be raining, but he was happy as can be!

Throwing his apple in the apple grinding machine!

Two cuties with their apples for the apple grinder!

Learing about the apple press! Everyone got a turn to turn the press and make their cider to drink.... yum!

Maddy Nielsen was so sweet to share her mom's umbrella with the other kids waiting in line.

Definitely a fun little field trip! The kids got to take home about 5 Jonagold apples each AND they made them each a carmel apple to eat before we left- YUMMY! Oh, and they got a cup of the cider that they pressed and boy was it delicious!
