Description
The Farm That Feeds Us takes readers through a full year on an organic family farm, revealing the machinery, animals, crops and seasons that bring food from field to table. From planting seedlings in spring and caring for honey-bees in summer to harvesting pumpkins in autumn and trimming apple trees in winter, the book shows how every part of a farm plays a role.
With warm illustrations and clear, friendly text, it helps young learners see food production as a dynamic, hands-on process—and encourages them to ask real questions about where their lunch comes from and how farms work.
