Excursion to Demeterhof (farm)

We looked, in vain, for animals in our region in winter. We walked through the streets, searched the woods and the parks – nothing! We only discovered an earthworm and some birds during our walks. This is the reason why we took the bus to the Demeterhof (farm) in Weitenung. Under pouring rain we spotted some brown sheep there, some of them outdoors and some in the stables. We learned about the way of life of the sheep and their eating habits. We were also able to see some guinea pigs and goldfish. Finally, we bought some vegetables in the farm shop to cook a soup at the kindergarten. We also took the vegetables from the story “Les bons amis”: carrots, turnip, red cabbage and parsley. In the greenhouse, located near the shop, we were allowed to have breakfast and were given some delicious organic biscuits. All in all, it was a successful excursion.
