Come experience our working farm for a morning! The field trips are an opportunity for children in Grades Pre-K through 5 to see, hear, smell, touch and taste vegetables, herbs, and flowers; to observe and interact with our chickens and to learn about how food turns into compost. The field trips are hands-on, and feature small group experiences with chickens, compost, herbs and vegetable/flower crops.
The experiences support children's learning in the New York State Science Learning Standards in the Life Sciences Domain. We engage children in active learning and encourage them to notice, observe and wonder, to ask questions, to explore, and to reflect on their experiences. ****We also address the NYS Social Emotional
