We are going back out to Bishops pumpkin farm this time to go on a Hamburger tour. This special educational program provides a guided tour of a farm that grows all the crops needed for a hamburger. Even the farm is shaped like a hamburger!
- Ride on the Bishop’s Pumpkin Farm Railroad to and from the Hamburger Farm site
- Guided tour of a farm that grows all crops needed for a hamburger-
- including hands on activities such as grinding wheat into flour
- digging potatoes and slicing them into French fries
- milking a “cow” to get milk for cheese.
- In addition to information on each crop, discussion topics will include: “good” and “bad” insects; and amounts of water needed to “grow” a hamburger.
- Self guided tour of Weeland petting zoo and the farm animals who live there
- Play time in Farmer Bill’s Barn, the Tree House, or Coyote Mountain Mine
- Nutritious hamburger picnic (meets school lunch requirements)
