Arizona Farm Field Trips for Schools

Tour a real working farm!

The farm host field trips designed for ages pre k—8th grade. The guided tour offers student a hands-on opportunity to become acquainted with an agricultural environment. The purpose of our farm tour is to provide awareness of the role of agriculture and food production in our daily lives. For many students this will be the first time the connect a farm to the everyday food they eat.

All tours are by appointment only and must have a group of 25 or more or pay for a group of 25 to schedule a tour. For schools or groups not paying with a purchase order there will be a half down

non-refundable deposit that is required upon scheduling. Approximate time of field trip at the farm is 2-3 hours.

(Please remember this is a working farm and the ground is a little rough, be cautious as you walk through, wear comfortable shoes and clothing. Remember to bring water and sunscreen. Rainy days will be cancelled and re-scheduled.)

For safety reasons field trips must enter as a group and leave as a group. Sorry no stragglers. If you miss your group entry, you will be turned away. If the teacher does not collect your money before arriving to the farm you will also be turned away.

Please have count (students, teachers, adults and guest of all ages in the group) and payment ready before arriving. Yes, parents must pay. We will not collect money from parents/guest. Field trips must be paid in one transaction only for the whole group by one person/teacher that is in charge of the group. One teacher will be free for every twenty five students.
