  • - Hey there Cookie Monster and Gonger.

  • Welcome to the cornfield.

  • Farmers plant tiny kernels of corn.

  • Those are the seeds. They grow all summer.

  • By fall, those tiny kernels have grown into tall stalks.

  • Along each stalk, there are ears of corn.

  • The corn can be harvested

  • by a big machine called the grain combine.

  • You can't see the corn because it grows inside a husk,

  • but when you peel it back, you can see

  • that inside is the yellow corn on the cob.

  • Once the corn is harvested, then it's shipped

  • to the grocery stores and farmer's markets.

  • You can eat corn as a side dish,

  • in salsa or even right off the cob.

  • Here's some corn to make cornbread, Cookie and Gonger.

  • Welcome to the pumpkin farm.

  • You probably have seen pumpkins get carved

  • To grow pumpkins, all you have to do

  • is plant the seeds in the ground.

  • The pumpkin starts out as a little sprout

  • then becomes a vine.

  • At first the pumpkins are green.

  • When they get bigger they turn orange.

  • When the pumpkins are done growing,

  • they're cut off the vines with special shears.

  • Some of the pumpkins are grown in a field

  • where you can pick out your very own.

  • It's called a pumpkin patch.

  • I hope you had fun at our pumpkin farm,

  • Cookie Monster and Gonger.

  • Here's a pumpkin for your pumpkin soup. Enjoy it.

  • Can you help us please?

  • - Hi Cookie Monster and Gonger.

  • Welcome to the Mustard Factory where mustard is made.

  • Of course I can help you, but mustard doesn't start here.

  • The mustard you eat in a sandwich is grown in a field.

  • Mustard seeds come from a plant that has yellow flowers.

  • After time, the flowers turn brown, then turn into pods.

  • A machine called a combine takes the seeds from the pods

  • and a tractor brings them to a factory like this one.

  • That's when we start making mustard.

  • First, the mustard seeds are ground.

  • Then the seeds go up a big pipe

  • into a tank filled with water and vinegar.

  • Next, we add turmeric and paprika.

  • After that the tank spins really fast

  • to mix the ingredients.

  • Then the mixture goes through mills,

  • which grinds it all together

  • and turns it into thick yellow paste, called mustard.

  • Then, we put it into bottles like you see at the store.

  • You can eat mustard on all kinds of food,

  • like burgers, pretzels, and turkey sandwiches.

  • Here's some mustard to make a turkey sandwich

  • Cookie and Gonger.

  • - [Gonger] Thanks Miss Factory Lady.

  • Can you help us please?

  • - Sure. Come with me.

  • - [Cookie] Ooh, big shoes.

  • - That's right.

  • You need special shoes called waiters to farm cranberries.

  • Cranberries are a healthy fruit that grow on vines

  • low to the ground.

  • For most of the year

  • cranberries grow and ripen on dry land.

  • When the cranberries are ready to be picked

  • the field is flooded with water.

  • Then a machine called a harvester knocks the berries

  • off the vine.

  • Once the berries are knocked off, they float to the top

  • then we wade into the water and push them

  • towards a special tube that sucks them

  • in and drops them into a truck.

  • Here you go. Fresh cranberries.

  • Enjoy them.

  • - Thank you Ms. Farmer.

  • Okay, we got the cranberries.

  • Oh, what we do now?

  • - Oh, I'll check the recipe.
