About the event
Come visit us on the farm for a morning of learning about where our food comes from and the important part seeds play!
We come up with a new curriculum and focus for school tours each year and this year we are talking about the Journey of a Seed. We have learned that rotational learning stations are fun for kids and keep them engaged.
This years Stations are:
#1 Farm Garden-Seed production and germination learning hands on.
#2 Silo Movie Theatre- Watch a movie on how seeds germinate ands time lapses of how seeds grow, and the vegetables and grains that we enjoy from plants.
#3 Barn - Feed Mixing- Help us mix feed that our animals will enjoy. See how seeds not only produce vegetables and grains for us BUT can also be used to feed livestock who use them to create milk that we can turn into butter and cheese as well as meat.
#4 Farm Garden: Learn to milk a goat!
#5 Tour end: Feed some of our creatures!!
Also Provided:
Learning booklet and a bottle of water.
access to bathroom facilities and picnic tables
access to farm store to shop farm products- goats milk soaps, t-shirts, local honey and much more!
