Group photo at Five Foot FarmOn Oct. 9, first- and second-graders from the Quincy Learning Center took a walking field trip to Five Foot Farm, off of Highway 70 in Quincy. While harvesting pumpkins, gourds, and sunflower seeds, students learned about the harvest season and local agriculture from farmer Elizabeth Powell.
