Lead an activity with small groups of elementary students during a field trip to an agricultural museum and organic garden. The purpose of the field trip is to expose the students to our agricultural heritage and to help them discover that food does not originate from a grocery store, but from a garden or farm and that many of the products they use daily originate from plants and animals.

This opportunity is for volunteers who enjoy educating children. You will receive an orientation to the activity prior to the field trip.
