Swanks’ Family Farm would like to invite you and your class to our farm this fall and introduce you to a very special friend.

Are you are looking to plant new ideas in your students heads? Visit our farm and introduce them to Spookley the Square Pumpkin. The program offers a great lesson with a multi-cultural message about accepting and appreciating the differences in all of us.

Book your trip early and get a free book to read to your class. 

Only $5 per student

Add to experience with a ride on the Cow Train for an additional $1.50

No charge for teachers and chaperones

Students get to visit our Kiddy Corral. Once inside they will be greeted and given an “I’m Special like Spookley” sticker, visit our Spookley Maze followed by story time where The Legend of Spookley the Square Pumpkin will be read.  We’ll discuss how we’re all different and being different is O.K. Wouldn’t life be boring if we were all the same?  From there they will move on and learn how corn grows or maybe the life cycle of a pumpkin. They will all get a cornstalk and go Fishing for Goats, visit the animals, jump on our Hay Jump, play in the Corn Box, visit the Chalkboard House and take home their own pumpkin.

Teachers and parents don’t forget your cameras. We have a wonderful painted photo op of cascading pumpkins where the whole class can be part of the fun.

This unique program, along with our great agricultural experience, is guaranteed to make your students feel special 

Add Spookley to your lesson plan! For lesson and activity sheets call 831-637-4704
