A Year on a Farm

Farms change with the seasons. In springtime, farmers plant seeds. This is the season when baby animals are often born. Crops grow during the summer and need to be watered and kept free from weeds and pests. In fall, farmers harvest crops. During the winter, farmers get the fields ready for the following year. They may bring their animals inside to keep them warm. Whatever the season, farmers are always busy, keeping the farm running. Discover what jobs farmers do in spring, summer, fall, and winter, and learn how they care for their animals and crops all year round.
