Students will collect materials with various shapes, colors and textures found on the farm and greenhouse. They will use the organic materials to experiment with cyanotyping. Students will create observational drawings and sketches while waiting for their sun-prints to dry.
This field trip includes a tour of the farm as well as a hands on "Farming" experience such as pruning, harvesting, seed starting, potting, etc.
