Fall Field Trips on the Farm

Fall is the perfect time to bring a class or group to the farm. The days get a little cooler, and we plant crops that can over-winter, and we’re still harvesting plenty of vegetables. We look forward to hosting your school group for a hands-on lesson on worm composting, types of soil, pollinators or the topic of your choosing. Farm-based education is provided for grades k-12, regardless of ability to pay. Field trips run through early November, weather permitting.
