When your class arrives to The Farm, you are met with an engaging schedule, given maps, directions and any other instructions on how to guide your class to each activity. Throughout the day you will rotate through all of the activities the same way you would centers in your classroom!

During your rotations, listen to a lesson by a REAL farmer! Read a story together, ask questions, and learn how plants grow! Teachers will get to take home a NC Strawberry Ag Mag to supplement learning!

Weather permitting, students will be able to pick a pint cup of strawberries for hands on learning! (and tasting!)

For some added fun you can add on gem mining for an additional $5/student or simply enjoy the fun learning experiences around The Farm!
You can also add on slushies, ice cream, or donuts as a snack for students to eat during their lesson!

Closed for the winter! Spring Field trips begin April 23, 2026. Opening Day of Upick Strawberry season at The Farm is May 2, 2026.
