This field trip introduces students to the full life cycle of a pumpkin—from seed to harvest—while exploring plant parts, growth stages, and environmental factors that impact development.

Students will also learn about the critical role of pollinators like bees and butterflies, and why they’re essential not just for pumpkins, but for many fruits and vegetables. Along the way, they’ll observe different pumpkin varieties and see how they vary in shape, size, and color.

This field trip dives into the essential role trees play in supporting life on Earth. Students will explore how trees contribute to a healthy ecosystem through the process of photosynthesis, carbon absorption, and habitat creation.

Throughout the visit, students will:

 Observe and identify a variety of native trees

 Learn how photosynthesis transforms sunlight into energy

 See how trees support wildlife, prevent erosion, and fight climate change

It’s a fun and eye-opening way for students to connect with nature, science, and the big role trees play in keeping Earth in balance. By the end of the trip, students will leave with a deeper appreciation for the natural world and the impact trees have on our planet’s health and sustainability.

Great for curious minds, science lovers, and future planet protectors!
