Staheli Family Farm offers educational field trips during Spring and Fall by RESERVATION during school hours.
Farmer Sherrie is passionate about education and real-life experience. Growing up on the Farm, Sherrie Staheli learned early in life the importance of hard work and consistency in caring for crops and animals. She grew up with a love for learning and a natural curiosity for life’s wonders.

Fall Field Trips include a grade-level appropriate lesson, a portion of the corn maze, get to know our farm animals, other fun farm activities, and a visit to the pumpkin patch (*Fall season only) where each class can pick one pumpkin for their classroom.

Hands-on learning experiences are always best when students have been prepared for what they are about to encounter and are able to then discuss what they learned afterward. Topics are broken into separate grade ranges and each includes activity goals to meet National Curriculum Standards.
Seating is available for classes who wish to bring their sack lunches.
