In lieu of their annual fall field trip to a local farm, Worcester Preparatory School students in preschool through second grade were treated to an in-house field trip this year.

Oakley’s Farm Market team members brought its outdoor mobile pumpkin patch to the school.

Owner Connie Oakley and Marcy Disbennett treated the children to a fun, interactive agricultural lesson followed by hands-on educational activities including a wheat and corn station, a tractor photo booth and a pumpkin patch to select their own pumpkin.
