Don't forget to return your permission slip for our field trip to the Tougas Family Farm!
Payment of $10.50 payable by cash or check made out to the Douglas PTO is due Monday, Oct. 5th.
Tougas Family Farm is a family owned and operated farm since 1981. In 1981 Maurice and Phyllis Tougas purchased the home farm, 53 acres of peach and apple orchards from Paul Fawcett. Over the years the apple stand, barnyard, playground, and kitchen were added. Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and pumpkins replaced some of the old tired peach and apple trees. In 1986 the farm was preserved under the Agricultural Preservation Restriction program run by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
From the beginning Maurice and Phyllis have invited the public to their farm to share their exhiliration for farming.
Our trip is scheduled for Thursday, October 15th. Activities include wagon ride around the orchard, picking 5 apples(1/4 peck bag), plus an apple to eat in the orchard, and choosing a small sugar pumpkin. Includes coloring book and sticker, and use of the Barnyard, Playground, and Picnic area.
We will return to the school by 1:30 pm. Chaperones may not take their children home from the farm but may dismiss them at 1:30 from the school if they wish.
Reminder: Friday, October 9th is a Half Day, dismissal is at 11:55.
