Sow Good Farms Visit - Class VI
The Class V children had a meaningful hands-on experience of farming which began with an
engaging visit to the Sow Good Farms. They saw different small farms and tried to recognise
the different crops, which helped them connect with nature. During their visit, they sowed
seeds and created small farms through which they explored the care required for farming
and how plants grow from seeds.
They also learned about the use of bio-pesticides as a natural and eco-friendly way to
protect crops. They prepared some for themselves with green chillies, garlic and neem
leaves. Alongside this, children discussed the importance of recycling plastic bags and
bottles and how waste can be reused responsibly.
After the enriching experience in the warm sunlight, the children enjoyed a refreshing glass
of lemonade with hot tempting pakoras. It helped them cool down and recharge while they
sat together, reflecting on their learning and sharing their excitement about the farming
activity. The visit helped the children to understand simple ways to care for the Earth and
develop respect for farmers through developing firsthand experience.
