Agricultural Education

ABOUT

As a proud member of the Agricultural Reserve in Montgomery County Maryland, we share a commitment to the preservation of rural space. Part of that preservation includes educating the community about our interdependence with the natural world and the role we play as stewards over the health of our environment.

We offer educational farm-based experiences where students of all ages and ability can form direct connections with the animals, plant life, and land we all depend on. We offer a variety of educational activities and lessons that can be combined to suit the curiosity and needs of our guests. Each lesson aims to empower students to make informed choices in everyday life as stewards of the Earth.
