Hi! Everyone its Victoria, First Impressions’ Patient and Marketing Coordinator! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. This past Friday I had the honor of attending my sons’ school field trip as a chaperone, to Patterson Farms.
It started out as a chilly morning, ending was pure sunlight. As we arrived at Patterson farm we saw hay pumpkins, hay scarecrows and hay spiders, with tons real pumpkins in the distance! The folks at Patterson were so friendly!
The first stop on our tour was the playground. The kids loved it! It’s huge with over 8 different sections. The corn and sand boxes were among my son’s favorite place to play. The corn box is nicely covered to avoid a sunburn. The pirate ship was also neat, it sat closely to the cornfield.
Once we finished up at the playground we headed up to eat lunch at the picnic tables overlooking the corn. We didn’t realize until we had already started eating that they offered a Snack Silo, I plan to try that when I take my family back.
Our next stop was a visit to the barn and the barnyard. The kids watched a video to learn about the farm, then we moved into the barnyard, where the kids got to feed the animals. There was a larger goat that kept taking the food from the smaller goats. The kids thought the animals were so neat!
Next, we headed over to plant lettuce. The kids each planted lettuce in their own cup that they got to take home. Hopefully our lettuce grows; sometimes I’m known to over water my plants!
Finally, we headed on the hayride! The kids were looking forward to it all day! The hayride consisted of a tour of the farm. We got to see the raised planting beds and pumpkins still on the vines! It’s quite bumpy, a good version of off roadin!
We ended our day by picking out pumpkins! As we drove away from the farm, I couldn’t help but think what a wonderful day we had and I couldn’t wait to take my family back.
