Summer Fun Farm Tours

Get Outside – Pick, Play, Learn

Our Summer Fun Tours are ideal for camps and daycares with children 3 to 12 years old. 

Summer is a more relaxed season, but groups are still looking for engaging, meaningful activities. Our fully guided farm tours are led by experienced instructors who understand how to keep participants active, curious, and involved. Each tour is designed to make learning fun, giving you time to explore the farm, connect with nature, and enjoy a memorable hands-on outdoor experience.

Summer Farm Tours are available to book

Farms are Fun;
They are a natural place for the total immersion of the senses with so much to see and do.

  • Farm Animals:
    Meet and feed friendly farm animals while learning about their needs, behaviors, and unique characteristics. Visitors discover how animals grow and change over time, how farmers care for them, and the important role they play on a working farm.

  • Field Activities:
    Children explore the plant growth cycle while learning about plant parts, healthy soil, and the water cycle, and how these systems are all connected. Guided games and hands-on activities keep kids active and engaged as they discover how food is grown on the farm. On hot days, water play is included to help everyone stay cool while enjoying their outdoor learning experience.

  • Experience the Seasons:
    Activities on the farm change with each season, offering something new every time you visit. Summer brings a more relaxed pace and a wide variety of pick-your-own crops as they ripen in the fields, including strawberries, beans, tomatoes, and flowers. Guests can enjoy fresh air, hands-on harvesting, and a true connection to seasonal, locally grown food.

    Emphasis is placed on activities that are inquiry based, interactive and age appropriate.
