Field trips are designed to provide teachers with a forum to reinforce or introduce applied science concepts taught in the classroom.

Dates: Monday – Friday, May 7 and June 29
Length: 3 hours, 8:45 – 11:45 or 12:15  – 3:15
No charge

AgBio Discovery Camps offer a fun, hands-on introduction to modern agriculture for campers from both urban and rural backgrounds. 

Energetic and educational activities explore various steps along the food production chain from lab, to field, to market, to plate, and promote a positive view of science and learning. Campers are divided into two categories; grades refer to the year the student will be entering in the Fall: 

Explorers Grades 3 & 4
Voyagers Grades, 5 & 6

Sessions for each group will be offered several times over the summer. For more details, download the Camp Details form and Camp Registration Request.
