The Schedule of events for Spring and Summer Field Trips is as follows:
Schools will be split into groups of 30-35 people upon arrival. Groups will spend their first hour at the farm learning about plant life cycles, planting a seed, and taking a trolley ride around the farm.
After the first hour, you may spend the rest of your time doing the following at your own pace:
*Eating lunch at the picnic tables
*Playing on the swing sets
*Playing on the tube slides
*Jumping on the Jumping Pillow (as our staffing allows)
*Prospector Gem Mining ADD-ON option. Please allow an additional 30 minutes to your stay to account for time at the Gem Mining station. Groups will be given a time frame to be at the gem Mining station when you arrive at the farm.
The Schedule of events for Fall Field Trips is as follows:
When you arrive at the farm, each teacher will be given a trolley ride ticket with your class time to ride the trolley to pick a pumpkin. This will be scheduled sometime within your farm stay and takes 20-30 minutes.
The rest of your time at the farm can be spent doing the following at your own pace:

Please follow DROP OFF/PICK UP signs upon arrival. These signs will guide buses to the designated drop-off area. For safety reasons, please DO NOT UNLOAD OR LOAD in any location other than the DROP OFF/PICK UP location. Once unloaded, buses can follow signs and park in the OVERSIZE area. Please tell your bus drivers what time to pick your group up in the PICK UP area for departure.
Upon arrival, please gather your group outside of the entrance/exit building. Your group leader should then go to the admissions window to check-in the group, complete payment, and receive stickers. Our farm staff will then greet your group to get your field trip started started.
Credit card or check is preferred. Please don’t get a check made out in advance, as we cannot refund a check for field trips that is written over the amount due. In the case of a check written for a higher amount, we may be able to provide goods such as Pumpkins to offset the extra amount, but no refund will be given.
In order to keep on schedule, WE REQUIRE ONE PAYMENT FOR THE ENTIRE GROUP. Paying together as a group helps us keep our field trips running efficiently and on time. Please be sure to collect any money ahead of time.
Yes, all attendees must pay the required admission fee. However, you receive one free teacher or school staff admission per 8 paid admissions.
We do require you to have the teacher/chaperone form signed and filled out to hand in to us when you arrive. The purpose of this form is for teachers and chaperones to know and acknowledge their role and responsibilities while attending Pinehaven Farm for a Field Trip.
The parent consent form that we provide can be used if you do not have your own. If you have your own, we do not need a copy.
Yes, your group is welcome to bring bag lunches. There are several picnic areas around the farm that your group is welcome to utilize. These areas are first come, first serve. Please note, we cannot guarantee a covered space to eat lunch so plan accordingly.
The Farm generally remains open during periods of light rain and/or snow. With that in mind, all activities are outside so please instruct your students to dress for the weather, no matter what weather is being predicted. If there is a high probability of heavy storms on the day of your visit, then you may request to reschedule your field trip for another day up to 24-hours in advance of your visit. Please email us with weather related requests to reschedule.
Field Trip questions are easiest to answer via email. The preferred contact for all questions or comments is info@pinehavenfarm.com. Phone calls may be answered by staff that is not equipped with field trip information.
We have many portable bathrooms on the farm including several larger/handicap accessible units. We also have 1 baby changing table near the entrance of the farm. All bathroom locations are equipped with water, soap, and towels for handwashing.
We do not have any food or beverages available for purchase during Field Trips. We also do not have a drinking fountain on site, so please plan accordingly. If your group is in need of more water, we do have water bottles available for purchase for $1 each.
A child’s season pass may not be used for a classroom field trip, Monday through Friday, 9am to 2pm. This is because the cost of the field trip is for lessons and takeaways.
Siblings of your student may attend the field trip if they have your permission, but they will need to be added to the schools total count. Ages 1 and under are free, and will not receive a pumpkin or other field trip take aways.
Our fall field trips are teacher/chaperone guided meaning as the teacher or chaperone you are leading your students around the farm. Groups will be given a time to get on the trolley to go to the pumpkin patch and other guideline for going about the farm. Groups are allowed to move about the farm as you please either in your class/group or in smaller groups. All groups are required to be in the presence of a teacher or chaperone at all times.
