Kindergartens
Primary
Secondary schools
For kindergartners, we offer a sensory experience where children discover agriculture through their senses: Touching animals, feeding them, smelling animal and plant odors, understanding reproduction and the food chain...
For primary school children, our food and water are the focus of attention! From observing glaciers, the river and the marsh, to meeting the different animals on the farm, the workshops are diverse and provide material for an inspiring class project.
A landscape reading by schoolchildren will enable them to observe the rapid melting of glaciers, its impact on society and the role of farmers in land management. From food to biodiversity and solutions for the future, a geographical approach to the territory will raise a variety of awarenesses.
