A VISIT TO THE FARM
Last weekend, my family and I visited a farm outside the city. The farm was full of animals and crops. We saw cows, goats, and chickens. The farmer showed us how to feed the animals and collect eggs from the chicken coop. My favorite part was picking fresh vegetables from the garden. After the tour, we had a picnic under a large tree. The fresh air and the countryside made the day very enjoyable. We learned a lot about farm life and had a wonderful time.
