From the Farm to the Table Almonds

Did you know almonds grow on trees? It’s true—they start as beautiful blossoms before turning into the crunchy snacks we love!

Join 35-year veteran photojournalist Kathy Coatney, an agriculture expert, as she takes second and third-graders on an exciting journey into the world of almonds. With the help of Farmer Dan, kids will discover how almonds grow—from blooming flowers to harvest time and beyond—all through stunning photographs and easy-to-read text.

Book 5 of the From the Farm to the Table series, is perfect for second and third-graders, featuring second-grade vocabulary words to make learning about farming fun and engaging.

“Book 5 in a series of exceptionally well-written educational reads for second or third grade comprehension. Close-up and interesting photos and information help the reader to understand how almonds grow, how they are harvested and processed for the end user. Just enough information not to overwhelm a young reader yet keeping them engaged. Second grade vocabulary list at the end (underlined throughout the text) as well as resources for creating lesson plans, list of almond industry terms and additional website resources.”
