4Roots Field Trips engage students in hands-on educational experiences that help to deepen their connection to food and agriculture. Field Trips at 4Roots Farm are designed to bring STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) concepts to life, with a focus on regenerative agriculture, sustainability, health and wellness, and culinary arts. Each field trip program includes an interactive tour of the 4Roots Farm Campus and experiential lessons and activities that are thoughtfully structured with relevant, age-appropriate Florida State Standards in mind. Example topics include: food systems, soil health, plant and animal science, permaculture, food waste and composting, hydroponics and aquaponics, renewable energy, farm-to-table nutrition, and more.
Field trips can be tailored to fit the interests, needs, and schedules of individual groups. Hoping to give your students a fun, educational, out-of-school opportunity to complement in-class learning? The 4Roots Farm Campus is a space where students can apply knowledge gained in the classroom in a unique, organic environment. Looking for a project-based learning experience for your students or youth group? We can work with you to schedule multiple visits, creating a customized experience where each visit builds on the last.
