About Your Visit
Your group of students will be divided into 2 large groups if there are more than 40 visiting the farm at one time. One half will complete the outside portion of the tour first, finishing in the tree barn. The other half will begin inside and finish with the outside learning portion. Inside the heated barn, students will be divided into 4 smaller groups to travel between the four stations.
Please remind students to dress for the weather. The outside tour will take 30 - 40 minutes to complete.
