Fun and Learning at Oma’s Family Farm
About Oma’s Family Farm
Oma's Family Farm is not just a farm, but a living classroom where students explore, discover, and grow. From planting seeds and harvesting crops, to caring for animals and composting waste, students participate in every aspect of farm life, fostering a deeper understanding of where food comes from and the importance of supporting local agriculture.
Students explore organic vegetable gardens and fruit orchards and learn the importance of environmental stewardship and responsible farming practices. The farm also offers guided nature walks and wildlife spotting tours that enables kids to connect with the natural world and appreciate the beauty of San Diego's rural landscapes.
What the teachers said:
Getting buses … to Oma's provided us with a trip early in the year that we would not otherwise have had the time to fundraise for beforehand. We were able to take our classes off campus for their first trip ever since they were in Kindergarten. Our students were so excited to go somewhere together and to learn about the pumpkin life cycle in real life, which we have been learning about in class, and make memories with friends.”
