Thistle Whistle Farm and The Kampe Foundation have been hosting the NFCMS summer science camp on tuesday afternoons. the farm is a great place for applied science experiments, exploring and making new friends (animal, vegetable and mineral-types)! this was our first class in the new classroom. last week we had a basic introduction to the farm, started and decorated our science journals, and made some time to study atoms & molecules! the students had the opportunity to milk goats, then experiment with the molecular structure of the goat milk using food color and a few other ingredients. The students are getting great exposure to the diversity of the plant world. Mark grows so many interesting plants on his farm!
