Welcome! Children today are disconnected from their source
of food and fiber.One way to bridge this gap is through a visit to a working farm. Coonamessett Farm's knowledgeable staff
welcomes the opportunity to show off our farm to school groups, scout troups, play groups, gardening clubs, senior groups
and others interested in farm education and local agriculture.

-
Various types of farm animals including alpacas, goats, sheep, donkeys, chickens, &
ducks.
-
Ten acres of pick your own fruit & vegetable production.
-
A farm store, cafe and covered picnic area for your enjoyment.

A typical 2-hour farm tour will include a welcome and age appropriate farm orientation, a guided
tour to learn about and observe plants growing in the fields and greenhouses, and visits with our farm animals, plus
an optional seasonal hands-on activity. Groups are welcome to bring a brown bag snack or lunch to enjoy after their
tour. We look forward to working with you to match your group's individual needs, interests, or curriculum guidelines
with our farm's various educational opportunities and experiences.
