Educational Events & Tours

On-Farm School Tours and Field Trips

Weaver’s Orchard offers many educational events. We encourage field trips and school tours on our farm.  We know the value of teaching the next generation about agriculture. After all, we are a fourth-generation farm! We want children from preschool (ages 3 and up) through elementary school to know that eating locally grown fruits and vegetables is healthy and delicious! Our tours are also available for adults and senior groups.

Fall Tours

Our fall school tours focus on apples. Your group will learn about an apple’s life cycle and get a back-stage pass to see what happens to an apple once it is ready to be harvested at Weaver’s Orchard.

Spring & Summer Tours

Our spring and summer group tours focus on planting and pollinators.

Our tours are perfect field trips for your preschool, kindergarten or elementary school class, homeschool group, scouts, daycare or day camp group. Topics can also be adjusted to accommodate older children or adults.

Our tours are STEELS Compliant for teachers needing to incorporate that into their curriculum.

Parking is free and available at our tour parking lot.
