Vrrrooommm3: Apple Farming for Kids

Have you ever wondered where that apple in your lunchbox came from? Was it from the same place as the apple juice in your thermos? This fun and informative video traces the journey of an apple from pollination to grocery store, with all the stops in between. Not only do we get an inside look at an apple farm, but we also see how all those neat conveyor belts and gadgets in fruit processing factories work. The editing choices are a bit odd--we bounce back and forth between the factory and the orchards out of chronology, and the end includes a bunch of kids running around a farm for no apparent reason other than to look cute. However, the overall production value is high--great camera angles, music bites, and quality narration from a friendly host. Recommended. Aud: K, E, P. (E. Gieschen)
