Field Trips

Garden field trips are available for all Summit, Wasatch, and SL county schools, preschools, nonprofits and daycares. We welcome public, private, charter, and homeschooling groups. Students have an opportunity to learn about where food comes from and connect to nature. Depending on what’s going on in the garden, this may include: seed starting, planting seedlings, tending crops, harvesting, pollination (bees), decomposition (compost), and preparation.
