 At Little Parrot Farm, nature is a learning lab to explore and learn how we work together with nature. In the flower and harmony gardens, see the unique, foreign veggies. Learn about the busy bee pollinators and composters that help our plants and enrich our farm soil. Witness farmers harvesting to bring “farm-to-table” produce to the local community. Look at how microgreens are produced. Smell and touch farm materials used to make natural, home products such as honey soap and herb infused oil. Little Parrot Farm provides temporary and permanent homes to their sanctuary animals: including rabbits, alpacas, dogs, chickens, chinchillas, and pigs.

This field trip includes interactive and hands-on activities for children to understand how the farm combines regenerative agriculture with animal rescue. 

You may bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on their tables after the tour.

Re-live the American Revolution at Riley’s Farm!  As you arrive, you’ll be placed in “townships.” You’ll stay with your township throughout the day and visit a variety of village posts. After everyone has arrived and is on the main green, the regulars will check you for contraband. If smugglers are found, they will be arrested in a brief recreation of the “Gaspee Affair.” The excitement begins when the American minutemen attempt to come to the rescue.

After the opening skirmish, you’ll be off to participate in several hands-on stations. Textbooks come alive as students participate in these fun and challenging activities.

After you’re done with your village posts, you’ll have a brief lunch. You’ll be given a soldier’s ration of lemonade, cornbread, cheese, an apple and dried beef. If that’s not enough, visit the Bakery, General Store, of Hawk’s Head Publick House. You can also feel free to bring your own food to supplement your ration.

After lunch, students get to participate in a mock battle, a recreation of the 1775 Battle of St. George’s Tavern. Colonial Townships will use their martial drilling training to defend the tavern behind a dry stone wall while the Redcoat Townships will attempt to march on the tavern.
