An Interactive Puppet Show
Discover the fascinating story of Lobinette
in a play created and interpreted by Performing Arts graduates
from Lionel Groulx, featuring children from your group
and puppets made from recycled materials, and presented
within the new concept of interactive theatre. What an
entertaining way to discover the science of nature!
Tractor Ride and Apple Picking
Ride through the apple-filled orchard and
discover the many varieties of fruit by reading the panels
strategically placed along the way. A stop is planned
mid-way through the orchard so your students can pick
a four-pound bag of eating or cooking apples.
Visit the Stables and Small Animal Farm
Meet the horses roaming around the stables,
and discover a dozen or so chicken-yard animals explained
on small panels installed throughout. The ducks, pheasants,
sheeps or rabbits are all waiting for you.

A
Treasure Hunt...?
We offer a picnic
area under shade trees, sanitary facilities and indoor space
to deposit lunches and organize activities in case of bad
weather.
Nothing beats
a treasure hunt outdoors to recap everything learned during
the day. Each member of the winning team will get a free
gift from the orchard.
Find
out more about our special packages for school children,
which include a carton of freshly made apple juice
from the orchard for each child.
Our
orchard is easy to find and offers ample parking for
buses. Moreover, all buildings are equipped with ramps
and are totally accessible.
Reserve early by
calling Francine. We hope to see you
soon!
