Teaching Resources

Here at Summers Farm, we are proud to be able to offer our facility as a learning tool by our local educators.  As with any activity, pre-planning is always a definite advantage to fully appreciate the experience.  To help teachers plan ahead of their field trip to Summers Farm, we have collected a list of links to teaching aids.

Please look these over and decide which ones better convey the message you want your class to receive.  As always, we are available to answer any questions you might have about your field trip experience.
