- Hey, it's me Blippi and

today we're at Tanaka Farms

in Irvine California.

Tanaka Farms, yeah, it's

a farm where you get

to pick your very own

fruits and vegetables.

No grocery store today.

Today, you and I

are at the farm.

Here we go.

Check it out.

It looks like there's a

tractor and two wagons.

Let's go.

(upbeat music)

Here at Tanaka farms,

you can ride the tractor

on the Tanaka farm tractor tour.

I am so excited.

Oh, hey look.

Hey.

- Who are you?

- I'm farmer Kenny.

- Ooh, farmer Kenny.

Nice to meet you.

I am Blippi.

What do you do here?

- I do a little

bit of everything.

Drive the tractor around

and take you on tour.

- Whoa, can we take a tour?

- Sure, hop on on.

- Alright, let's go.

(upbeat music)

Whoa, check it out.

I'm in a carrot field.

Alright, step on over.

And you see all this green

that's the top of the carrot.

Yeah you don't eat that.

The carrot is actually

under the ground.

That's why they call it

a root vegetable.

Okay, in order to pick a carrot

we actually need to

find the carrots.

So let's pull these back.

Whoa, there's a lot right here.

Yeah see all this orange.

Yeah, those are carrots

but they're pretty

stuck under there.

So let's take this

giant pitchfork.

Whoa. Looks like a small fork,

but way bigger.

And then, let's

loosen up the soil.

(upbeat music)

Wow!

Then we need to pick a carrot.

Hey, here's one right here.

Wow! Check it out.

We got a carrot, whoa!

Yeah.

That's cool.

I love carrots.

They're the color orange.

I love putting

them in my salads,

my carrot cake even some

soup, they're so yummy

and they help your eyes

be able to see at night.

Whoa, pretty cool.

Hey and there's actually

there's an animal

that really loves

to eat carrots.

Can you think of

what animal that is?

Huh? Let's go find it.

(upbeat music)

Aaw, cute bunny.

Oh look, it's a cute bunny.

Wow. This bunny's name is Andy.

I wonder if Andy wants

a carrot from earlier.

Here you go Andy.

Huh, maybe Andy's not hungry.

That's okay.

Let's put Andy down.

Here you go.

Alright, there you go Andy.

Whoa, I love bunnies.

They're so soft.

Hey,

this is Peanut Butter

and the other one

it's name is Jelly.

Ooh, here's another one.

Oh,

look at all those.

Oh hey,

here you go.

It's okay.

Yeah.

Wow.

Do you see this chicken?

This is a Modern Game Chicken.

Yeah and they still lay eggs,

although they're really small.

Yeah, look at him.

Hey, you're so cute.

Wow.

Okay.

Let's put Peanut Butter down.

So then peanut butter can

eat some of the mealworms.

Okay there you go.

Oh. Oh.

And come over here.

I have something to show you.

(upbeat music)

Wow.

Right over here.

We have some eggs.

Yeah, chickens lay eggs.

Wow.

We have one egg,

two eggs,

three eggs

and four eggs.

These two are big eggs

and these two are small eggs.

But these two weren't laid

by the Modern Game Chicken.

These are still too

big for those chickens.

Okay, we'll put these

eggs back right here.

And let's go check out

the chickens some more.

(upbeat music)

(chicken clucking)

These chickens sure

do love their snack.

(upbeat music)

(chicken clucking)

(upbeat music)

Whoa!

Wow. Do you see these?

These are carrots.

They're the color orange.

I love the color orange.

It's one of my two

favorite colors.

Whoa, and these

are onions.

Wow. That is a big onion.

And look at these.

These are also onions but,

these are called green onions.

Yeah. They're both onions,

but they look so different.

Wow.

This is romaine.

I love romaine.

It's so healthy.

I like to put it in my salads.

Wow.

And these are beets.

Whoa!

These are golden beets.

And these are just beets.

Ooh, look, check these out.

These are cute.

These are radishes.

Do you see the color?

It's kind of like a pinkish red,

yeah.

I like that color.

Whoa.

Hey, it's spinach, these

are in a little case.

A clear case.

Yeah. Spinach is green.

A lot of these vegetables are

the color green it seems like.

Well, see the radishes.

Yeah. The part that you eat

is the pinkish red color.

But up here, this

uses photosynthesis

to grow the radishes.

And this is the color green,

but you don't eat the top.

Wow.

Kale.

You should try some

kale chips sometimes.

Yeah. It's like normal

chips but healthier.

Wow! Are these drumsticks?

Nope. These are sugar cane.

Wow!

That is so sweet.

Wow. Japanese eggplant.

Wow. These are the color purple.

It's a very dark purple.

Wow.

So cool and healthy.

We got some green celery.

We got some cauliflower.

Ooh. Can't forget about

the summer squash, yeah.

Wow. And we also have

some green bell peppers.

Yeah right next to them,

red bell peppers.

Check it out.

Yeah.

Red, green,

red, green.

We'll put those back

just right there.

And last but not least.

We got some corn on the cob.

I love corn.

- Alright, Blippi we're here.

- I am so excited.

I wonder what type

of food this is.

Okay let's see.

Alright.

- We could go down

this road right here.

- Okay this one, alright.

Wow. What are these?

- Those are watermelons.

- Watermelons. Wow.

It looks like there's

two different kinds.

- Yeah. There's this

small round ones,

those are yellow watermelon.

- Okay.

- And those big oblong ones,

those are red seeded watermelon.

- Wow. Can we pick a couple?

- Yeah, let's find some to pick.

- Okay.

- So,

how about this yellow

one right here.

- Okay.

- Right in the middle.

- This one?

- Yeah.

- Okay. How do you do it?

- Just go comes right off.

When it's ready it

comes right off.

- Wow. Look at it.

This watermelon is a

circle or a sphere.

Okay. Alright.

- Let me go I'll go

grab a red, a red one.

- Okay.

Whoa, that's a big watermelon.

Wow what shape is this?

- Looks like a sphere to me.

- Yeah. Kind of

like a oblong sphere

or an oval.

Alright.

Now, can we put them

down right here?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Wow.

These are so nice.

Okay.

Alright.

So, this is a normal watermelon

and we know what

the color inside is

but we should just cut

it open and check, right.

- To see what it looks like.

- Wow.

Yeah.

Green on the outside

and reddish pink,

red on the inside.

Wow. And do you see the seeds?

They're black seeds

and white seeds.

Okay. But since this watermelon

looked a little different,

what's so different about it?

- It just has a

yellow inside flesh.

Oh, that makes sense.

Yeah, because it's called

the yellow watermelon.

Can we cut it open?

- Yeah. Let's cut

it open and see.

When they're nice and

ready, they pop right open.

- Whoa, I've never seen a

watermelon like this before.

Look, this is the color

yellow.

Oh wow.

Alright. Let's compare them.

Yellow, red, yellow, red.

Both are tasty.

Wow. Let's see how it tastes.

That's sweet.

I love the taste of

yellow watermelon.

What color is your

favorite of watermelon?

- My favorite is yellow.

Has a little bit different

taste but tastes really good.

- Yeah. Let me tell you

this tastes really good.

You want to try?

Woo.

more strawberries.

Okay. Do you see my container?

This is called the

Clamshell Container.

Yeah.

Wow!

Look at them they're so tall.

Kind of looks like Corn st*lks.

But I know they're

not Corn st*lks.

Wow!

Whoa!

It almost hit me.

We're stopping.

- Alright Blippi we're

here on sugarcane lane.

- Sugarcane lane?

Did you hear that?

Oh, that's what these must be,

sugarcanes.

Whoa!

Okay, alright Farmer Kenny,

- We're going to cut

some sugar cane down.

- Okay.

Hey, these are sugar cane.

- Looking for a nice stalk.

- Whoa.

Whoa. That's a sharp Kn*fe.

He just chopped it down.

Wow. What's sugar cane used for?

- Could use it just to suck on.

You could use it to press

it out make juice out of it.

Cook with it.

- Is that when they

make sugar out of?

- Yeah.

- Whoa,

sugarcane makes sugar.

Wow.

Okay.

Wow. Look at that.

- So normally just cut off the

skin and chew on the inside.

- Wow. So you can chew

on that right there?

- Yeah.

Wow.

Anytime you use Kn*fe you

have to be very careful.

Right grownups?

And only grown-ups

can use the Kn*fe.

Whoa. Alright.

That looks so yummy.

- You chew on that little end.

- Alright, let's try it.

I love sugarcane.

Whoa! Check this out.

Whoa. This is a monstrous plant

and this is actually a flower.

This is a giant flower

and this flower is

called a sunflower.

Wow.

Can you tell why it's

called a sunflower?

looks like the sun.

Whoa.

Wow.

And sunflowers produce seeds.

Yummy, seeds are really healthy.
