Review of Siegels Cottonwood Farms

It is the worst place to take 3 kindergarten class...

It is the worst place to take 3 kindergarten classes. Not only do you have to endure a guided tour, they have you go to the Farmer Paul's classroom. It is agonizingly painful to watch 75, 5 year olds having to sit down, on the floor, in the dark for about 15 minutes to hear farmer Paul talk about his family, 23 week old miracle of a grand son, first granddaughter to want to become a farmer in 100 years, etc. etc. How the 911 terrorists are cowards. Not to mention God is mentioned 3 to 4 times when in our group we have non believers (we are a public school), they felt offended. The lesson was too long and not age appropriate.

After we left this room we are taken to a hay ride. Our group was too big to fit in the truck so once 10 of us are left we were told we could not go on the ride OR to have 10 adults get out so we can fit the kids...I refused. Everyone paid. Everyone deserves the right to get on. So finally they complied but the last 10 people didn't have a chance to play at the playground.

We wanted to try something different but we learned our lesson (I have Farmer Paul to thank for that). From now on, we are sticking to Johansen's. Now that's a great farm to take children on a field trip.
