Fresh from the farm: 4th graders pick corn for school lunch at Vesledahl’s

The fourth grade class of Win-E-Mac Elementary began to harvest some knowledge this year by visiting a corn field planted by Vesledahl Farms.  Steve and Bob Vesledahl planted a few acres of corn around the area this spring specifically for the Win-E-Mac School District.  

The fourth graders were given a quick lesson in which cobs would be the best for picking and then were set loose collecting the best cobs they could harvest.  

Students picked and shucked the corn and delivered it back to the school.  The corn was served the next day along with barbecued chicken, baked potatoes, a variety of fresh fruit and pineapple upside-down cake.  

The fresh corn was fantastic and enjoyed by everyone at the school.  Vesledahls invited the school back for another corn harvest as well as further donating fresh carrots to the school lunch program.  

A huge thank you goes out to Vesledahl Farms for their time and effort in feeding our  Win-E-Mac students!
