Smartest Pumpkin in the Patch Curriculum

Make your Fall Field Trip to Shady Brook Farm even more impactful with our Smartest Pumpkin in the Patch learning series! These engaging resources help teachers prepare students before their visit and extend the learning after they return to the classroom.

We know that hands-on experiences are most effective when students know what to expect—and can reflect on what they’ve learned. Our downloadable curriculum materials are designed to enhance both pre- and post-trip learning, making your visit more exciting, memorable, and educational.
