It was a beautifully cool day to visit the Ziegler farm.  Here, the kids get a small tour of the equipment and buildings of the farm.

Jessica and Andrew climb out of the corn field..

Patricia and Hailey play around a little.

Frank, Ryan, Angie, and Hailey roast hot dogs after tubing down the Ziegler River.  The journey was about a half hour and was mentioned as being the high point of many villagers' days.

Bart and Patricia assemble s'mores later on in the day.

Julia and Mitchell feast!

The Ziegler farm is a good chance for villagers to see a country way of living, as opposed to the college campus where we reside.

This is Nate, our guide.

He was very excited to spend time with ELV, as were we.

Villagers dance with Julia after a great dinner.

Barbara receives a candy bar for speaking English all day.

Kids participate in a special activity called "English Language Super Heroes" in which they must wear a super-hero nametag and speak English the entire day.  If anyone hears them speaking another language, their name tag is taken away.  However, if they make it until dinner they get a great prize!

A group poses in front of the Zieger guest house.

To finish off a great day at the farm, Heather, Kate, Molly, and Julia visited the biggest turkey in the mid-west. 

Pretty cool!
