A Living Classroom Rooted in Growth, Discovery, and Community
Fox Chase Farm is more than just a farm — it’s an educational sanctuary where the soil, animals, and seasons become teachers. As one of the few working farms operated by a public school district in the United States, Fox Chase Farm serves as a powerful gateway for youth and community members to explore agriculture, sustainability, and the vital connection between people, food, and the environment.
Each year, we proudly welcome over 50,000 student and community visits through a diverse range of hands-on learning experiences.
