How does Kustermans School Tours work?

Our farm school tours offers a mix of interactive activities that connect students with nature, farming, and wildlife. With a combination of seasonal programs and year-round farm experiences, students will explore, learn, and engage in a way that makes education fun. From feeding animals and exploring the fields to solving farm challenges, each visit offers a unique way to connect with the farm.

We accommodate 8-10 classes per day from grade K to 5 in May,  June, September, October, November and December.

Each class tours separately with a program tailored to their grade level.

The cost is $15 plus HST per student ($16.95 total).  Additional parents or siblings will be charged $15 plus HST.  Billing will occur after the tour for accuracy, and the school can send the cheque by mail.

Free Admission for Supervisors

We offer free admissions at a ratio of 1 supervisor for every 4 students. For example, a group of 16 students would be eligible for 4 free admissions for supervisors.
