We have been studying about the Morris Farm. There were no shingles on the Morris Farm before. There was pavemant over shingles for a time. Then they ripped the pavement off the building and now there's shingles on it.
Chris and Deanna Bailey are the farm managers. There is a school next to the Morris Farm. It is our school.
We picked pumpkins there last fall and we are going to plant some pumpkins there very soon. We cut off milk carton tops and started the pumpkins in our classroom in organic soil. They are now growing under our growlab in the classroom. We are also planting outside in our own garden but the peas we planted there have not come up yet. The
Morris Farm is a 60 acre farm mostly hayfields and pasture land including a pond, a waterfall, a small woodlot, a barn , and a farmhouse on the Gardiner Road , Route 27 in Wiscasset less then a mile from the center of the village and Route1 in midcoast Maine.
Baby pigs are cute when they are little.
They are in the process of rebuilding buildings and fields. They are committed to the practice of sustainable agriculture. The Morris Farm has a lot of animals. They butcher them and get some more animals to butcher like pigs, chickens, sheep, ducks and turkeys. They have 16 baby calves, 15 female grown- up cows, 33 chicks, 6 pigs, 55 ducks, and 28 chickens.
We took this picture of the baby cows at the Morris Farm.
