Aguri no Sato

Today, I went with Ryan's class and another 5th grade class to Aguri no Sato in Misawa.  It's an agricultural center with several greenhouses, a market, and an organic restaurant.  Since we all brought our lunches, I didn't get to try the restaurant; however, I've heard the food is wonderful!

We had to leave the other bus behind on our way out - the bus driver hit a light on top of the security gate and had to switch busses.  

In the strawberry green house; rows and rows of strawberries!

Here is an actual beehive with bees buzzing all around.  They have to pollinate...

In the "tropical" greenhouse.  

Ryan is eating his lunch with friends (and pretending I'm not there.)

Papayas

The kids had a blast feeding cabbage to the rabbits.  

While the kids were busy looking at the animals, some of us chaperones relaxed in the foot onsen!
