A Day on the Farm

A Day on the Farm

Even though Carl and Paula Sandburg lived on the same farm at Connemara, they lived very different lives. Carl was a poet and spent much of his time writing. Paula spent her days managing the Chikaming goat herd as well as other aspects of the farm.

In this activity you must determine which activities occurred at what time during a typical day on the farm. If you make it through the entire day, you will get a clue!
