Hello again, 

Today we met at school already at 6 am and rode the bikes again, but for 10 km. 

After ca. 45 minutes we arrived at Hippala farm.

Like the farmer told us, that the farm was family property for around 250 years! 

They have 86 cows which are milked at 6 am and 4 pm. 
Exept that, they have "freetime" and sleep, eat and meet. 

After this little "speech" from the farmer, we went into the cowshed 
and could see how the cows were milked. 
Every cow spend around 30 liter milk! And this process takes about 5 minutes.


After that we went on and saw the calfes, which were sooo cute! 

Then we asked the questions we had prepared yesterday and got these answers: 

The cows eat mixed food with grass, grains and oat, and if they are ill they get antibiotica, so it is not Halal.
When they are old, the farmer sell them to the slaugherty.

Then we had freetime and drunk some juice and got icecream. 
And we also got the chance to see a birth of a babycow and then how it tried to stand up! 

At 10:30 o'clock we arrived back at school and waited in the musikroom for lunch.

After eating, we went into another room and got time to write our blogs and prepare the presentations of the eating philosophies. 

After the official program Noora and I drove to Kotka city, to the shoppingcenter. 



Back at home, we had a barbecue, which was very delicious. 



 See you, Lisann : )
