Outdoor Class Tours

Come join us on the farm for a unique learning experience! Learn about animals and where your food really comes from!

Teachers: Lesson plans are available upon request for Math, Science, Language Arts and Health. Videos are also available.

The Spring Tour (approx. 1 hour) includes:

• Educational walking tour of fields
• Visit with the animals
• Sample of ice cream
• Coloring sheets and cow name tags
• "Got Milk" stickers
• Classroom study sheets (upon request, call for details)
• Plant your own seedling in our greenhouse to take home

The Fall Tour (approx. 45 min.) includes all of the above, except, instead of a seedling, the children will experience a tractor-pulled hayride to a pumpkin patch where they may choose their own pumpkin to take home. This tour also, includes a bag of hay to feed the animals and "Create a Pumpkin" bag to decorate the pumpkin when they get home.

Tours are available April through June or September through October by appointment only.
