Pollinator Program
To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee, One clover, and a bee. And revery. The revery alone will do, if bees are few. -Emily Dickinson
Farmington Land Trust (FLT) and Farmington Public Schools have partnered to bring every second grader in the district to FLT’s Environmental Education Center in Unionville, Conn. for a day-long field trip focused on pollinators.
With a curriculum designed and facilitated by educators, students enjoy experiential learning that includes lessons in botany, entomology, art, a scavenger hunt and relay race in English and Spanish, and yoga on the land.
In 2025, about 350 students attended the Pollinator Program.
