Over the last week, we attended two homeschool field trips that centered on healthy eating. One was to Great Harvest Bread Co. in Longmont.
The kids learned the only 5 ingredients they use in their honey wheat bread: honey, wheat, yeast, water and salt.
They showed us how they grind their wheat and make their bread.
They all got to practice making rolls.
And then the best part, taste-testing:
I brought home some freshly baked potato-chive bread. SO yummy -- it's the one that's pictured here:
The other field trip was to Whole Foods. We've done this one a couple times, but it's a favorite. They lead the kids around the store and teach them about natural vs. organic foods and let the kids try all kinds of goodies.
Then the kids each got to make their own granola mixture.
The trip was topped off with a yummy slice of pizza:
These are my favorite kind of field trip; they are free, educational and tasty. LOL

We were just talking about GH this a.m. Jamin said he'd miss home baked bread and I told him there is a Great Harvest in the town he's moving too....same ingredients. LOL
These look like fun field trips.
You always go on the neatest field trips!
