Hawthorne Valley farm is a diversified, Biodynamic farm in upstate New York. Our farm spans 400 acres of woodlands and rolling hills, open fields and meadows, and flowing creeks and streams .

 A while back, the 4th grade went on a trip to a place called Hawthorne Valley farm. They went to the farm because some of the fourth graders needed some time away from school. They  were with their friends and had fun, but had no school work to worry about. But really they were learning about working and helping as much as they can.

There was a lot of chores to do that kept them busy and occupied. One of the jobs was yucky, poopy clean-up. It was deadly. We also herded the cows and the one bull. We ride horses some people knew how to ride on there own but you were not allowed.So back to morning chores. It wasn’t the best for some people they didn’t like the cows chickens and all of the other animals so they would try not to do anything..

We were sleeping soundly until it was time for morning chores. A black figure took some kids away. It was all nonsense after that. People got zipped into their sleeping bags then the fun began. First we did standing races.  We also did worm races. After that, it was too crazy to explain. Anyway it was too squishy to move in the worm races.

At Hawthorne Valley Farm there were four rooms. There was the front dorm, and the ice house. These were boy rooms. There was the pink room and the yellow room.  The yellow room was called the Sunshine cabin because the room was yellow. The pink cabin called the Pink Piggies because the cabin was pink.Sleeping was a big part of the farm trip.
At breakfast lunch and diner, we would sing a song about how lucky we are to be here and just have the lives we have. The food we had was really good to some people. One of the chores was making food  for breakfast Lunch and dinner. Different people Do it on different days.
