Students will engage in a medley of sensory activities as an introduction to the farm, including making a sound map, completing a textures/colors/shapes/sizes scavenger hunt, exploring the sensory garden, tasting garden fruits and vegetables, and creating collections of objects based on their attributes using items found on the farm. Participants will create a work of art inspired by the 5 senses using seasonal items.
