Why visit an educational farm?

Children often no longer naturally come into contact with “nature” from their home situation. Yet children  like to be outside, they are generally eager to learn and interested in animals, plants, flowers, etc., especially if they can engage in “exploring” themselves. An age to sow the seeds for “pleasure in nature”.

Recent news and studies from the United Kingdom reveal that there are significant benefits to visiting a farm. For example:

– Connect and be reminded we are part of the natural world.

– Learn about where food comes from (it does not grow in the supermarket).

– Hands-on practical educational activities.

– See and appreciate the work that goes into growing food and rearing livestock.

– Learn about potential professions and work in agriculture.

– Learn about animal welfare.

– Physically get out from the city and office environment and out into nature.

– Visits also support the local community.
