On the Farm

Last summer Peter Brown visited his friend David who lived in the country on the farm. It was not far from the town. There were some mountains on the right of the farm and near the mountains there was a river. Peter and his friends sunbathed and swam in the river. There was an orchard round the farmhouse. Apple, cherry, sweet cherry, plum and pear trees grew there.

There were a lot of farm animals on that farm. Peter saw many horses in the field near the river and some sheep and cows on the meadow behind the house. Some of the cows were brown others were black and white. There were fields of corn, wheat and barley not far from the farmhouse.

The farmer grew potatoes, cabbage, carrots, beet, beans and other vegetables in his vegetable garden. The farmer's wife kept hens, cocks, chickens, ducks and pigs. They also had a dog and two cats.

Peter helped to work in the field and in the garden, weeded vegetables and fed farm animals. He liked that work and learned a lot about farm life.
