Exciting Field Trip Destinations
At Nature Friends, we believe that real-world experiences in nature are essential for a child's growth and education. That's why we offer a variety of engaging field trip destinations that allow children to explore the natural world in a fun and meaningful way.
Past Field Trips
Copper Mine Tour
We stepped back in time to a local copper mine where children learned about the mining process, geology, and the impact of mining on the environment.
Lavender Farm
We visited Floren Family Farms in Tularosa, NM to learn about lavender. We watched bees at work, picked stems to make beautiful bouquets and enjoyed outdoor games in the field.
Three Rivers Petroglyph Site
While hiking on the 1-mile trail, we viewed the intricate rock art, while learning how the mysterious ancient symbols and figures, depicting wildlife, human forms, and geometric shapes, convey a rich narrative of early life and spirituality.
Bluff Springs, Cloudcroft
We cooled off in the mountain rain, created cork boats and raced them in the spring water.
