Private Field Trips
Field trips at Master's Touch offer a unique opportunity for groups to connect with nature, learn about horses and other farm animals, and explore how they play a role in healing and personal growth.
Our field trips are more than just a day on the farm—they’re hands-on,
nature-rich learning experiences designed to spark curiosity and align with
Georgia Standards of Excellence for Science. Whether you're looking to support your unit on life cycles, habitats, or ecosystems, our farm is ready to bring
those lessons to life.
We welcome public, private, and Christian schools, homeschool groups, co-ops, and even groups of friends looking for a fun and educational day on the farm. Field trips are designed for kids of all ages and abilities. Each experience can be customized to meet the needs of your group.
