Science on the  Farm at Copper Coast Mini Farm

Great way to explore science while getting up close to all the animals living on a farm. Start the afternoon with a treasure hunt at the Copper Coast Mini Farm while your parents enjoy the day in the tea rooms. You will then get the chance to present your treasures and to do some hands-on science experiments with materials you can find everywhere on a farm or in even at home in your garden. All participants get a free family pass for the whole day.
