Fun for the whole family on the Farm!

Join us on beautiful Topaz Farm for a morning of exploring, learning and growing together on the farm and in nature.

Family Fun & Learning on the Farm

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 from 10am-12pm at our site on Topaz Farm and will be held every Wednesday starting September 22nd and ending November 10th.

Use the button above to register for a Family Field Trip. Just select your date from the list above, then click on the your selected date at the bottom the form and follow the prompts. Family Field Trips are offered with a sliding scale fee structure: $10 to $25 per family or group up to six. If you would like to bring more than six students, see Field Trips for registration details and instructions.

Scholarship opportunities are available. If you have any questions or concerns about family field trips, please check in with our Resource Director Joanne Lazo.
