"We had such a nice time on our field trip to the farm. The children loved
it and have been talking non-stop about it since. They don't want a dog
or a cat anymore. They now want a cow for a pet.
Thank you for making our trip fantastic."
Sincerely,
Mrs. Stefano's Class

"Our trip to the farm was both enjoyable and very educational. Our children
were able to hear, see, smell, taste, and touch on the farm trip. I know
we will be back next year!"

"I've been to Swisslane Farms twice, and had a great time each visit.
Most kids just think milk comes from a store. It's good for them to
actually see the cows and how they're milked, and to learn what goes
into getting the milk to the store (and the ice cream and cheese, too).
My nieces love seeing the baby cows, and feeding them from giant
'cow-size' baby bottles. The highlight of the second visit was watching
a calf being born."

"It was educational for young and old alike. The tour was filled with
mindful facts that everyone grabbed onto. We have a new appreciation for
our carton of milk:). It was a moooving experience!"

"I appreciate how appropriate the content covered by the tour was. Annie
really did touch many of our science objectives as she explained how the
farm works and why workers performed certain tasks. The visuals for the
kids were at the perfect height (the milking parlor, the calf pens, etc.)
and they could easily see everything Annie was talking about. What a fun
experience, feeding the calves! Thank you for all you did to show our
students dairy farming!"

"Experiencing a working farm was the best way for our students to not only
understand mammals but where their own food supply comes from and how
important it is to take care of our world so we have places to grow and
raise food sources."

"I wanted to thank you again for putting together such a terrific field
trip. The kids had a blast and haven't stopped talking about it. From the
conversations around my dinner table, I think they learned bunches too.
Our trip to your farm was one of the best organized field trips we've
attended so far. If you'd like to use me or my group as a reference, we'd
be honored. I'd love to see more homeschoolers blessed by visiting your farm.
Praying the Lord continues to pour out blessings on your farm and family."
