Virtual Farm Field Trips


Bring the Farm to Your Classroom with Engaging Videos & Resources

Take Your Students on a Learning Adventure

Are you ready to take your students to the farm without ever leaving the classroom? Our Virtual Farm Field Trips transport young learners to three Florida farms growing some of the state’s most popular commodities: cucumbers, sweet corn and strawberries.

Your students will meet six Florida farmers as they share how these fresh Florida foods are planted, grown, harvested and distributed.

Students will gain valuable insight into the world of Florida farming, while also learning about life sciences, nutrition and more!
