Farm Visits For Pupils
With our network of trained farmers, we can help you plan and run safe, curriculum-linked educational farm visits and other days for your pupils in your local area.
We provide engaging, curriculum-linked activities and experiences for classes at all Key Stages which inspire them about food, farming and the countryside.
Our LEAF Education Specialists can lead and deliver these activities, and we can work with you to create bespoke activities tailored to your school and your students’ needs.
Not able to take your pupils out to a farm? We also run regular Virtual Farm Visits which you can deliver in your classroom.

“The children really enjoyed the tour of the farm and being able to go into the field to see the animals close up; a real chance to get out of the classroom environment and continue learning.”
— Year 3 teacher
“It really opened my eyes to see how a farm is run as a multi-million-pound business, and to think about all the decisions the farms have to make, not just what crops to grow.”
— A level business studies student
