HOLLEY – Vendetti Farms in Holley recently welcomed first-graders from Holley for a hayride, tour of farm equipment and pumpkin picking.

The farm hosts the first-graders every fall. The kids play a variety of games with pumpkins including pumpkin bowling, tic tac toe, ring toss and pumpkin stacking.

Students learn about the different types of corn grown on the farm and make a craft using ornamental corn.

Karen Clark, a school employee,  brings her goats and chickens to the farm.

“It’s a fun day, not just for the kids, but also the adult volunteers, most of who are retired teachers from Holley School District,” Lynn Vendetti said.
