0:48:23 > 0:48:28Here comes William Whiskerson in his amazing travelling globe.
0:48:33 > 0:48:35Greetings, adventurers.
0:48:35 > 0:48:40I am William Whiskerson, the famous mouse explorer.
0:48:42 > 0:48:45Today, William is in the countryside.
0:48:45 > 0:48:48He can see trees and fields all around him.
0:48:48 > 0:48:53But which part of the United Kingdom is he in today?
0:48:53 > 0:48:56Cheesephone, reveal my location!
0:49:00 > 0:49:05The Cheesephone shows William where he is on a map of the world.
0:49:07 > 0:49:09Hello, William.
0:49:09 > 0:49:13Today, you're in a county called Kent in the southeast of England.
0:49:13 > 0:49:17Look, I've got a message coming through on my Cheesephone.
0:49:17 > 0:49:22Hello, William. My name is Lucy and this is my sister, Laura.
0:49:22 > 0:49:25Why don't you come with us on an orchard adventure?
0:49:25 > 0:49:30That sounds like an amazing adventure.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32Lock the location, Cheesephone.
0:49:35 > 0:49:39The map shows William where to meet Lucy and Laura.
0:49:39 > 0:49:43Explorers away!
0:49:44 > 0:49:47Lucy and Laura are at an orchard.
0:49:48 > 0:49:52An orchard is a place where fruit is grown.
0:49:52 > 0:49:54Fruit can grow on trees,
0:49:54 > 0:49:56bushes
0:49:56 > 0:50:00and on plants near the ground.
0:50:00 > 0:50:02William meets the explorers
0:50:02 > 0:50:06at a part of the orchard where berries are grown.
0:50:10 > 0:50:13Pleased to squeak you, Lucy and Laura.
0:50:13 > 0:50:18- Pleased to squeak you, William. - Ha-ha! Look at all those plants.
0:50:18 > 0:50:23- Why are they all in rows?- Because there's different types of fruit.
0:50:23 > 0:50:30- Oh, so is there a different type in each row?- Yes.- Oh, I see!
0:50:30 > 0:50:35The rows of plants are full of different types of berries.
0:50:35 > 0:50:38Berries and fruit are full of vitamins.
0:50:38 > 0:50:42They are very good for you - as well as being delicious.
0:50:42 > 0:50:45Lucy and Laura show William all the berries
0:50:45 > 0:50:47that are grown in the orchard.
0:50:47 > 0:50:49These are blackcurrants.
0:50:49 > 0:50:54And these are redcurrants.
0:50:54 > 0:50:58- These are blackberries - Aw, they look tasty! Ha-ha!
0:50:58 > 0:51:05- What can you make with blackberries? - Blackberry jam.- Blackberry jam?
0:51:05 > 0:51:10- What else?- Blackberry pie. - Blackberry pie.
0:51:10 > 0:51:16- What could we have blackberry jam on? - Toast.- Blackberry jam on toast!
0:51:16 > 0:51:19Squeakalicious!
0:51:19 > 0:51:24The fruit in the orchard needs lots of sunlight and water to grow.
0:51:24 > 0:51:31When fruit is fully-grown and ready to be eaten, we say it is ripe.
0:51:31 > 0:51:33Ah!
0:51:34 > 0:51:37- What are these ones? - They're raspberries!
0:51:37 > 0:51:41I never knew there were so many different types of berries.
0:51:41 > 0:51:46There's still lots more to see, William.
0:51:46 > 0:51:49The explorers show William a part of the orchard
0:51:49 > 0:51:51where fruit is grown on trees.
0:51:58 > 0:52:03- William meets Graham the fruit farmer.- Hello, Graham.- Hello, girls.
0:52:03 > 0:52:08- William, this is our friend, Graham. - Pleased to squeak you, Graham.
0:52:08 > 0:52:12- Pleased to squeak you, William. - What fruit are these?
0:52:12 > 0:52:17- These are called cherries. - Why are these trees in special tents?
0:52:17 > 0:52:19These are polytunnels.
0:52:19 > 0:52:22Polytunnels shelter the trees from the weather
0:52:22 > 0:52:27and from animals such as birds and insects like slugs
0:52:27 > 0:52:29that might eat the fruit and leaves.
0:52:29 > 0:52:33Some trees grow in polytunnels all year around.
0:52:33 > 0:52:37Wow, look at all these cherries.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40These cherries are in the polytunnels
0:52:40 > 0:52:42to protect them from the rain.
0:52:42 > 0:52:46If the cherries have too much water, they grow too large
0:52:46 > 0:52:48and their skins burst.
0:52:48 > 0:52:54- Farmers call this splitting.- Here's some that weren't covered.- Oh!
0:52:54 > 0:52:58Can you see where they've split?
0:52:58 > 0:53:02It looks like they've gone pop! Hee-hee!
0:53:02 > 0:53:08Lucy and Laura show William where the apples are grown in the orchard.
0:53:09 > 0:53:14In the apple field, they all help Graham to thin the apple trees.
0:53:14 > 0:53:18Thinning is where the smallest apples are picked from the trees,
0:53:18 > 0:53:23leaving the ones left behind to become big and juicy.
0:53:35 > 0:53:40The orchard has lots of other fruit which ripen through the seasons,
0:53:40 > 0:53:42including apricots
0:53:42 > 0:53:44and pears.
0:53:44 > 0:53:48This means there is always something to pick.
0:53:48 > 0:53:54Finally, Graham shows the explorers where the strawberries are grown.
0:53:54 > 0:53:59- What are we going to do now?- We can pick our own strawberries!- Really?
0:53:59 > 0:54:01Strawberries?
0:54:01 > 0:54:05Graham hands the explorers punnets to put their strawberries in.
0:54:05 > 0:54:09Strawberry pickers away!
0:54:23 > 0:54:24Orchards like this one
0:54:24 > 0:54:28sometimes allow people to pick fruit for themselves.
0:54:28 > 0:54:33Then they pay for what they have picked and take it home to eat.
0:54:33 > 0:54:35Can we eat the green ones?
0:54:35 > 0:54:38No, William, the green ones are not ripe,
0:54:38 > 0:54:41which means that they are not ready to eat.
0:54:41 > 0:54:44They are only ready to eat when they turn red.
0:54:44 > 0:54:47The berries in the orchard are safe to eat
0:54:47 > 0:54:50but remember some berries can be bad for you.
0:54:50 > 0:54:54Always ask a grown up before you pick any berries
0:54:54 > 0:54:56to make sure they are safe to eat.
0:55:01 > 0:55:06Aw, great, our punnets are full! What are we going to do with them now?
0:55:06 > 0:55:12- Take them back to the shop. - Great! Explorers away!
0:55:15 > 0:55:19The explorers make their way to the orchard shop
0:55:19 > 0:55:23to have the strawberries they have picked weighed.
0:55:23 > 0:55:26Inside the shop, there are other people buying fruit
0:55:26 > 0:55:29and vegetables from the orchard.
0:55:29 > 0:55:32William discovers that the shop sells other food
0:55:32 > 0:55:35that has been made and grown locally.
0:55:35 > 0:55:36Like apple juice,
0:55:36 > 0:55:39vegetables,
0:55:39 > 0:55:41yummy jams,
0:55:41 > 0:55:42fresh eggs
0:55:42 > 0:55:45and even William's favourite...
0:55:45 > 0:55:49Cheese! Squeakalicious!
0:55:51 > 0:55:52The explorers also spot
0:55:52 > 0:55:57the different fruits they've seen on their orchard adventure.
0:55:57 > 0:56:01- Look, William, there's even more strawberries here.- Awww!
0:56:01 > 0:56:05There's gazillions of them.
0:56:05 > 0:56:09Lucy, Laura and William have their strawberries weighed
0:56:09 > 0:56:12so they can find out how much they cost.
0:56:14 > 0:56:17That was a brilliant adventure.
0:56:17 > 0:56:21- But it's not over yet, William. - Ohhh.
0:56:22 > 0:56:25After his busy day at the orchard,
0:56:25 > 0:56:29Lucy and Laura invite William for a special cream tea.
0:56:29 > 0:56:31Wow! What have we got here?
0:56:31 > 0:56:34We've got scones with cream and strawberries
0:56:34 > 0:56:38and some more scones with cream and strawberry jam.
0:56:38 > 0:56:41Ohh! Squeakalicious!
0:56:41 > 0:56:46The explorers tuck in to their cream tea.
0:56:46 > 0:56:49You've got cream on your lips. Hee-hee!
0:56:51 > 0:56:54There you go, William. Here's a pot of jam.
0:56:54 > 0:56:59Oh, thank you, I'm going to really enjoy tucking into that.
0:56:59 > 0:57:02I've had a brilliant day in the orchard.
0:57:02 > 0:57:08- Squeak you later, Lucy and Laura! - Squeak you later, William.
0:57:08 > 0:57:12Can you remember where William went today?
0:57:12 > 0:57:16William visited his friends, Lucy and Laura, at an orchard.
0:57:16 > 0:57:19Can you remember what was growing there?
0:57:19 > 0:57:22Berries,
0:57:22 > 0:57:23cherries
0:57:23 > 0:57:25and apples.
0:57:27 > 0:57:31He even got to pick his own strawberries
0:57:31 > 0:57:34and finished his adventure with a cream tea.
0:57:34 > 0:57:39Time to fly, explorers. We're off on another adventure.
0:57:41 > 0:57:43See you soon, William!
