The FREE AgBio Discovery field trip program is designed to provide elementary teachers an opportunity to reinforce or introduce applied science concepts taught in the classroom through a series of highly interactive, engaging activities hosted at the College of Agriculture and Bioresources. Field trips are offered in English in May and June to grades 3 - 8 with a limit of 35 students per session. In June 2019, we will also offer field trips in French. If you would like your field trip in French, you must request this when booking.

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

Campers are divided into two categories, grades 3/4 and 5/6 (grades refer to the year the student will be entering in the Fall).
