Programs & Field Trips

Our flagship programs and field trips for teachers and students turn agriculture education into a hands-on adventure.

Follow the Farmers

Virtual Farm Tours

Follow the Farmers is back for Season 5! 
Take your class on a virtual field trip to the farm—no bus required

Each livestream event is created to connect directly with grades 3, 4 & 5 curriculum and includes a real farm tour and live Q&A with the farmer. 

👉 New this year: Teachers will need to register for each event individually to take part. 

Each registration gives you: 

  • A link to join a livestream farm tour, where your class can explore a real farm and meet the farmer 

  • A chance to take part in a live Q&A, where students can ask their own questions 

  • Access to the video recording after the event, so you can re-watch anytime with your class 

Be sure to check out our past virtual farm tour videos available on our resource library!
