Bring your family for a day of fun, food, and community on the farm
Join us on beautiful Topaz Farm for a morning of exploring, learning and growing together on the farm and in nature.
March 25 – Family Day: Dig in to all SIC curriculum topics and the interconnectedness of nature We will cover pieces of each of our lessons in the morning. After a lunch break we will spend the afternoon exploring the garden and creating garden-themed arts and crafts near by.
This fall we invite you to come out to Sauvie Island Center on Topaz Farm to spend time exploring and growing with your family and/or small group at our Family Field Trips!
Family Field Trips
Our curriculum is designed for elementary school aged children, but all ages are welcome with appropriate supervision. Field trip leaders will lead small groups through an exploration of our typical spring field trip modules: Seed to Harvest, Plant Parts, and Soil & Compost. We’ll also spend time in our very own Grow Lunch Garden, learning about decomposers, a dynamic farm tour and more. Family field trips run about two hours.
Thank you to Portland Nursery for your generous support of our teaching garden and First Foods Forest.
