Students became the teachers last week when eighth-graders from Cherryland Middle School shared their knowledge about life on the Samels Farm with area fourth-graders. Dressed in appropriate attire, students gave guided tours of the house, garden, barn, blacksmith shop, granary and an archeological site where Indian artifacts were discovered as the Samels family worked the soil. They also demonstrated everyday chores like baking bread, making butter, using a wringer washer, flailing grain and tending to the goats. http://photos.record-eagle.com/Events/Samels-Farm/1samels2-20090529lp12/551264864_U572E-Ti.jpg http://photos.record-eagle.com/gallery/8398102_KjDHC/ 2009-05-31T09:49:23Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
