Three tiers. One goal: A powerful virtual farm experience.
Virtual Farm Trips are available at three tiers — Basic, Plus and Pro — to provide flexibility for each partner to determine the level of production sophistication, promotion and evaluation that best fits their needs.
Some hosts want simple productions. Others seek to wow their audiences with advanced production techniques. Yet others value impressing their board members with extensive evaluation metrics. In order to allow each partner to do it their way, we have created a 3-level tiered pricing structure, so that you only pay for the level of production and support that you need.
What is a Virtual Farm Trip?
A standard Virtual Farm Trip is a 30-45 minute experience connecting students LIVE with a farmer on their farm. Attendees interact with the farmer and a moderator (think news anchor) who is provided by the hosting partner organization (you). We can register your attendees to gather information and metrics from the viewing audience, and after the event, we will send a survey to assist in analyzing your impact. Tours are often streamed to YouTube and posted in the on-demand section of our website for an evergreen experience!
But that’s just a standard trip! There are many customizable options and services we provide for different styles of trips, as well as a variety of virtual experiences (webinars, symposiums, large meetings, conferences, special events, etc.). Our goal is to create an impactful and memorable experience for your audience, and help share your message and reach your goals.

Non-Standard Virtual Experiences
We will determine each desired Virtual Experience value based upon the size, scope, duration, time investment and other key factors involved in producing the event (includes webinars, symposiums, large meetings, conferences, special events, etc.).
