We would love to offer you the opportunity to bring your school to our farm.  We host school groups Monday through Friday from September 26-November 4 during our 2011 season.  We are just a short drive from anywhere in West Tennessee or West Kentucky.  For your $5 admission fee you get:

• to visit a local, working farm
• enjoy a snack of free popcorn and a drink
• experience fun and exciting lessons in science, history, agriculture, and play a game about adjectives
• visit our petting zoo
• walk (or run) through our corn and hay mazes
• plant a seed to take home with you
• play on the playground (we've added new play equipment this year)
• make your very own butter (with a container for each child to take home)
• have lunch in the covered pavilion
• take a hay ride around the farm
• AND pick out your very own pumpkin from the patch!

We have several different educational stations set up to not only teach your students, but to give them a "hands on" learning experience.  We have put together a curriculum that is fun and entertaining, but also educational and informative for students and adults alike.  Our stations are geared towards Pre-K through 4th grade students, but can be altered to fit any school group's needs.  This year we will be focusing on plants, cattle and horses specifically.

A few of the state standards that will be taught on the farm include:

• food production and the life cycle of animals
• history of the United States
• ecosystems-wildlife and forestry
• structure and properties of matter-liquid to solid
• plants, soil, roots, and plant systems
• adjectives

Please let us know if you have any questions or would like any more specific information about our farm.  We would love to see you and your school group this fall!
