School Tours
Plan your fall School Tour at Pingle’s Farm!
School is back and fall is in the air! Join us at Pingle’s Farm with your class for an educational and action-packed tour of our farm.
What’s included?
Pingle’s Farm has been bringing farm fresh fun to the Durham Region ever since our “barn doors” opened over three decades ago. Each tour will take kids on a behind-the-scenes wagon ride around the property, highlighting all the different crops we grow while explaining the efforts it takes to ensure a successful harvest each year. Students will then have the opportunity to pick their own apple in September or take home a mini pumpkin in October. For some fun on the farm (& to tire out the kids before the bus ride home!) your class will end their visit in the Pingle’s Playland, which is home to our animal farm-ily (goats, chickens, ducks, bunnies, & zebus) slides, trikes, farm hoppers, games, & our famous 6.5 acre corn maze!
the cost
$12 per child – includes the tour, wagon ride, admission to the playland & corn maze, and an apple for a light snack!
Teachers and parent volunteers are free.
