Field Trip Schedule
We can design a personalized field trip for your group but… most trips look like this:
Students arrive 9:30 - 10:00 am
20 minute - Welcome and Introduction
Students split into 3-4 groups and move through stations
Station 1:
Hayride - on the hayride the students will see the entire farm and will learn about the Christmas trees and other native and non-native plants on the property. There is a stop at the compost bins to talk about resources and composting.
Station 2:
Farm Zoo - students see/learn about and pet the animals in the farm zoo. This stop usually has a lesson on animal anatomy and predator/prey relationship
Station 3:
Learning Activity - planned by Donna and Teachers - can include craft/activity or playtime/restroom break.
Station 4:
Storytime and craft or planting. We offer several books to be read. If you have a special request, we will do our best to make that happen. We have books about plant life cycles, plant parts, food chains, seasons, milkweed/Monarch, some are seasonal for the fall/Christmas seasons.
Each station will last about 20-25 minutes. After these stations are complete the students will enjoy a picnic lunch and playtime. The students usually leave about 1:30 - 2:00pm.
