Event Description:

Apple Lesson & Orchard Experience, Pumpkin Picking

1:00pm, September 30, 2016

Our Vala's Staff Educators know all about apple growing, the importance of bees for pollination, how to pick apples, and other farm information appropriate for the developmental level of your classroom. The children will be taken into the Apple Education Barn classroom for a 15-minute lesson. As they are led into the orchard they will be able to see a variety of apple picking and sorting equipment. In the orchard you and the children will see first-hand how apples grow and watch them pick their own apples. Each child will pick and take home a small bag of apples and a small pumpkin. Allow 30 to 40 minutes for the lesson and orchard experience. Although parents are not allowed in the classroom or orchard they will be able to share time as you tour the rest of Vala's Pumpkin Patch. Fun and educational, there are over 50 attractions, including a free train ride, and 3 live shows to see. The cost is $8.50 per child. Teachers and paid staff are free. Parents and adult volunteers are $11.99 per person and will receive a pumpkin coupon and a free train ride.
