Hen House - Be a Smart Shopper!

Turn a visit to your local Hen House into a hands-on educational adventure.

This field trip reinforces lessons on nutrition for kids, healthy decision making, and overall wellness.

The field trip is reviewed by dietitians and Field Trip Factory's expert educators, creating memories that last long after the trip is over.
