Earlier today we went to Tony's work to see all the cool green bean equipment in action. Tony has been working the late shift this year so we thought we'd go before his shift started so he could show us all the machines without having to worry about fixing problems.
We got some lunch before we went to the cannery. Then when we got there Tony changed into his work clothes and we got our hair nets on before heading out onto the production floor.
We first checked out the trailer with all the beans from the field. Then we just followed the beans after that. We got to see them get weeded, washed, trimmed at the ends, chopped to the correct size, put into the cans, then the tops were put on cans, then they were cooked and finally labeled. It is so much fun to see the raw product and watch it get canned.The kids like seeing all the machines and finding out what they do. After our tour we got to sit in with the missionaries and workers for their prayer meeting before their shift started. It is so nice that Tony works for the church and is in such a good environment. We love visiting Tony at work and it made for a fun outing.
