Farm Animals School Visit

We had a farm animal visit from a dairy cow (and her 2-week-old calf), a beef cow, a hen, a rooster, 2 female goats (and 1 female baby goat – a kid), and 2 sheep! The farm animal visit was intentionally very hands-on and experiential for our students. After discussing a few ground rules, our students enjoyed petting, hugging, “loving on” and asking the animal handlers all their questions about the animals. It was amazing! The animals reside at Piney Grove Farm in Midland, VA.
