The Nature of Learning
Farm Field Trips in Gwinnett County
At Alegre Farm, the Nature of Learning is at the core of our existence. We provide a unique hands-on environment for learners of all ages to connect with nature through a variety of experiences. Our farm offers a hands-on learning experience like no other. Fun for people of all ages, we are the perfect destination for your next educational field trip. Your students will visit a growing homestead with a food garden, laying hens, goats, ponies, miniature donkeys, chickens and more. In a world where everything is simplified to be produced fast and economical, traditional farming becomes a lost tradition. We show students where the food that they eat comes from. They won’t realize how much they are learning!
