“Very organized and so easy on the teachers!”
Offering school field trips is one of our absolute favorite things to do here at The Farmer’s Barn! Whether it is pre-school, elementary, middle-school, or high school groups, we love to involve kids in our work here at the farm. Having grown up on the farm, we have seen first hand how important it is for everyone to have an understanding and appreciation of agriculture and the many pieces that work to provide our world’s most basic and essential need….food! And of course, a visit to the farm would not be complete if you didn’t have loads of fun while learning about farm life! Come join us for a field trip that will be enjoyed by staff, parents, and students!
