SEASONS IN THE SUN
FARM FIELD TRIP
Seasons in the Sun Farm is a small,
family-owned farm located in Spanish Fort, Alabama. We are committed to producing and providing fresh foods, free of chemicals
and preservatives, for our customers. We offer a CSA program
(Community Supported Agriculture). As a CSA Farm, we offer customers a healthy, convenient alternative to purchasing
processed food from grocery stores. Seasons in the Sun follows organic growing guidelines and grows many of our fruits and vegetables hydroponically
in greenhouses as well as field farming.
Field trips include educational experiences with gardening, hydroponics and aquaponics; honey bees/bumble bees and
their roll in life; farm animals and the purpose they serve; and many more farm life experiences! Lunch will follow and conclude
our day.
