The Casey gardeners took a field trip to Fresh Way Produce at 6900 Old Canton Road in Ridgeland, Mississippi, on July 8, 2009. The Cockrell family owns and operates this market and has been in the produce business for over 40 years.
You can take a "virtual field trip" by viewing the photos from the market and reading their descriptions. If you click on the link, it will take you to a slide show on Flickr. By clicking anywhere on the photo, a description window will open. Let me know if you have trouble with this!
Everyone left the market with a new appreciation for the hard work of farmers, running a business, and yummy, fresh produce to eat! We learned about a Mississippi invention, local produce, and a teacher who now makes pickles for the market!
Below is the slide show of the field trip, but you can't see the photo descriptions unless you go directly to the Flickr set in the "virtual field trip" link above.
