When it’s physically impossible to visit a farm or agricultural site, you can take a virtual field trip! Our Minnesota Agriculture in the Classroom program has enjoyed connecting classrooms of students with Minnesota farms and farmers.
MN Virtual Field Trips
You can access video recordings of live virtual field trips that MAITC (MN Ag in the Classroom) has hosted over the past five years. We were excited to engage with hundreds of students during these field trips that were hosted on Facebook Live. Students were able to ask the farmers questions using the “comments” feature on Facebook. The video recordings do not offer this opportunity for real-time interaction, but we think they still provide an exciting glimpse into life on a Minnesota Farm.
