P3 – Dumfries House – Food and Farming

Primary 3 had a fantastic excursion to the Dumfries House farm.  We enjoyed a farm tour where we learned about each animal, fed the chickens and ducks and even got to stroke a pig!  We also learned how to use ingredients to make scones.  We had to cut chives from the garden and used these in our savory scones.  We made our own butter by taking it in turns to shake full cream as fast as we could for at least 10 minutes.  This was a very worthwhile learning experience which we all enjoyed.
