SUMMARY:SPT Elem - Greyrock Farms Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Greyrock Farms on April 21st at 10:00am! \nDuring the field trips students learn the strawberry life cycle and pick strawberries to take home. It is typically a pint sized container for students to fill up\, but that depends on availability. The classes then load onto the hayride wagon where they travel to the dairy barn to see the cow milking process. The dairy barn is not completely functional; however students will still be able to see the cows up close and learn in the dairy barn. \nThere is a farmed themed playground and picnic shelter available. Feel free to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy at the playground. \nPay on site – For students the cost is $11.00 and it’s $8.00 for teachers/chaperones. (Only the kids get to pick strawberries\, so if parents would rather hang back during the tour while a couple parents attend that would be fine).
