Learning becomes a fun challenge as small teams uncover the mysteries of archeology and geology that lie beneath the surface of the earth. Great for team and community building and mixed age groups.

Glean Apples for New Jersey Farmers Against Hunger

An added opportunity for your students to perform a community service. After your tour, consider spending a half hour or more collecting wind-dropped apples in our beautiful 10–acre orchard. In just a short time, hundreds of pounds of delicious apples can be collected, which then are distributed by New Jersey Farmers Against Hunger to food pantries throughout the region. By reservation only.
