The experience
Explore Food & Farming: A Hands-On Learning Experience
For over 30 years, we’ve welcomed local students to discover the essential connection between food and farming. Students of all ages will experience a very hands-on approach to learning while being able to visit our barnyard friends and enjoy memorable covered wagon rides through our 52-acre farm.
Farm Visits & Schedule
We host field trips Tuesday – Friday at 9:30 AM or 11:00 AM, With each visit lasting up to 90 minutes.
What Students Will Explore
Students will rotate through four learning stations that support our curriculum objectives, including:
Interacting with and comparing farm animals, which include feeding friendly goats
Observe a cow milking demonstration.
Stopping in our garden to learn all about pumpkins.
Signature educational program. "All food comes from the farm."
We can modify our program to accommodate preschool through 5th-grade students.
