He also seemed to want to freak the poor Professor out by talking about poisonous food seriously, she would to have a talk to him about freaking out their Herbology Professor, he was already terrified of Slytherins as it was!

"That's right, Alex.. farmers grow lots of produce which includes fruit, vegetables and grains which they then sell on, or keep for their own use."

Humanity has depended on agriculture and farming since the dawn of time, and buy the use of planting, ploughing and harvesting, the Human race has developed to what it is." Patroclus felt like he was giving an inspirational sppech, but it needed to be said, so he said it.

The professor's eyebrows rose in surprise and a small smile played across his lips as Patroclus spoke up. It was a speech that would make any farmer proud.. and Sage being.. sort of a farmer? Yeah, he liked it a lot.

"Very inspirational," he grinned in amusement, "and you're very right, Patroclus. Farms are used by both muggles and wizards alike. Take myself for example.. wizarding blood goes back many generations, and the Dodson's of today.. they own and work on a farm." The Dodson farm. His ears burnt slightly.. he was never very good at talking about himself. "Many wizarding farmers use magic to aid them and help their farms thrive."

It was no good entering a 'who can grow the biggest pumpkin competition' alongside a wizard should you be growing it in the muggle way.

It was nice to hear someone knew someone else who lived on a farm, and Sage turned his attention to Emmy. "Trips to farms can be very fun, can't they?" Not so much when you LIVED on one, mind you. "And did you see what sorts of things they grew on their farm?" Or maybe she just wanted to see baby farmyard animals..

"I have been on a farm once and it was pretty awesome. Cows grazing the grass and a huge cornfield." she said as she lowered her hand.

"Corn! Right!" Sage gave his hands an excited clap, "growing corn is popular on a lot of farms.. do you know what else is?" That was a question thrown out to all of them..
