Rain scarves

Cow and Mouse are old enough to help with planting day. Cow plants hay, his favorite food; Mouse plants cheese.  With the help of audience members,  rain is plentiful. The soil is rich. Why won’t the cheese grow? Only Cousin Rat seems to know.

This interactive story was developed at Lexington Community Farm with advice from the education staff and some wise children.
