The Journey of Water and Beyond

MSU Tollgate Farm in Novi, Michigan has interactive, educational, and fun school and community field trips designed for a variety of ages.

The Journey of Water and Beyond (September-October, April-June): The secret is out! Every water molecule is on an incredible journey. MSU Extension Tollgate Farm and Education Center has its science educators on standby to explore with your students the water cycle, water conservation, and watersheds to take your water understanding to the next level. Set up a scientific field excursion at Tollgate Farm and investigate how important water is to human life and, because of agriculture, how important it is to plant life. But what about the earth in general? How important is water to the ecological balance of the earth? What role does it play and what is our role in the health of our water?
