Students learn the importance of agriculture in Ontario and the varied roles of farmers as they experience farm chores first hand while cleaning, feeding and caring for the farm animals. The usefulness of natural products of the farm such as wool and beeswax can also be explored. Visiting students have the opportunity to learn about sustainable plant based agriculture through a variety of garden based programs and farm to table initiatives. These programs highlight the importance of making sustainable food choices when possible within the greater context of climate action.
