Easy does it

Holley first-grader Juliana Mattison is stronger than she looks as she tests the weight of a giant squash at Partyka Farms in Kendall. Students had a chance to use an old fashioned apple press, drink fresh apple cider, eat donut holes and take a wagon ride out to the orchard to pick apples during their recent trip. The experience helps them learn about goods and services and community helpers. Also shown are Maryanne Zimmerman from Partyka Farms and Juliana's classmates (l-r, front) Adam Stetzel, Zachary Vaccarelli and Randi Gergely; (back) Brandon Donovan, Melanie Klossner and Heather Winkley.
