We know that organizing a field trip for 30+ students is no small task. Instead of coordinating buses, schedules and permission slips, let us bring the Farm to you. Available April through November, we offer a variety of engaging agricultural programs designed to educate and inspire your students. We can even include delicious farm-fresh treats to make the experience complete—no permission slips required.
