🐮COWS!🐮 Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Teeman's first grade classes have adopted dairy cows this year! They are taking part in the Discover Dairy educational program. Two dairy cows, Pinky (Scott) and Autumn (Teeman), were born on September 9, 2024! They live on a dairy farm in Troutville, VA called Cave Hill Dairy Farm. Both classes are able to follow their cows and watch them grow!
Check out this farm tour video and photos of the cows!
