Sierra Foothill Charter School students in transitional kindergarten through third grade thoroughly enjoyed a field trip to Hunter Farms Pumpkin Patch in Atwater on Tuesday, October 20, 2015.

They started with a hayride through the corn fields, then visited the Critter Corral to see and pet some baby animals. 

At stations, students had the opportunity to climb a hay bale pyramid, uncover realistic bones in a dino dig, and ride through a tricycle maze. 

Scott Hunter gave a talk called, "Farm to Fork" at which he spoke about where our food comes from. 

Then, students went to a presentation where they got to plant a seed and talk about the stages of plant life. 

A highlight for the students came after lunch, when they rode the Time Travel Tractor Train through a mining camp, Native American lands, and all the way back to prehistoric times where they saw a variety of dinosaurs.
