Updated: 3:04 PM EDT May 6, 2021 AVON, N.Y. Students in grades 8-12 are being offered a way to visit a WNY dairy farm without ever having to leave their home or school.

The tour is set to take place Wednesday, May 12 at 1 PM.

Farm Tours a Great Opportunity for Former Teacher

For Stacey Copenhaver, giving a farm tour is the perfect way to combine her two passions — education and agriculture. Copenhaver, a former teacher, has hosted a handful of tours at Talview Dairy, both in person and, more recently, virtually. She said both methods have positives. In-person tours allow hands-on interaction, such as letting a calf suck on your finger, or getting to feel and smell feed. Virtual tours allow for an unlimited number of people to see the farm. “I love bringing people to the farm and being able to tell our story,” she said. “That’s really important to me.”
