Agriculture Education Classes
Learn. Farm. Love. Thrive. Repeat.
Class Overview
Teaching students about agriculture on my family farm fuels my passion for connecting children to the natural world. Our weekly farm education classes explore plants, animals, ecosystems, and agricultural science through short, age-appropriate lessons, hands-on activities, creative projects, and plenty of fun in a real farm setting. These classes are perfect for curious learners who thrive in outdoor, sensory-rich environments.
