We were pleased once again to be part of the Spring 4th Grade Outdoor Education Farm tour organized by Beth Hill with the University of Maryland Extension. Over two days, about 150 fourth graders from the five elementary schools in the county toured the farm and learned about the importance of dairy products in their diet.
Each child in the class of Tiffany Kennedy, the teacher at the Galena Middle School, wrote us a thank you note accompanied by a hand drawn picture. What a great way to integrate the tour with the class room. Below excerpts from some of our favorites.
Dear St. Brigid’s Dairy Farm,
When I saw the dairy farm I saw lost of cows grazing away. Also, I saw machined that milk cows also I saw a calf named Nowell. First we learned all the breeds of dairy cows Miss Judy has on her farm. Then we went to the milking parlor. We got to smell and feel the cows food. I also got to hold and feel there teeth and see how big there pills are. They were huge.
The best part was petting little Nowell and looking at the milking parlor. But petting Nowell was the best part because she was so calm and soft. I loved this trip and someday I want to be a dairy farmer you inspired me so much.
Sincerely,
Brenna

Dear St. Brigid’s Dairy Farm,
I was so happy that I went to St. Brigid’s Dairy Farm because when I saw the dairy farm, I saw cows in the field grazing away...We learned that cows only produce when they have a baby. I also know that a bull is a boy. A heifer is a girl. I also know that the dairy farm was named after a saint of knowledge...Well, thank you for inviting us to the farm. THANK YOU. I like your farm Miss Judy also you are the best in taking really good care.
Sincerely,
Liz
