FIELD TRIPS
LEARN AND PLAY
ON THE FARM
We believe that education about agriculture, tied with FUN activities, is essential for everyone - especially kids! Here at Bloomsbury Farm we are surrounded by rich heritage, history, and farming; and we are passionate about sharing it with all who visit! We invite you to bring your students to experience the rural magic of the Iowa farm with an added twist of extremely unique and exciting activities!
