Nearly every day at the market, we see an adult reminiscing about visiting Lineberger's Farm as a child on a school field trip. Children in elementary schools, daycares, and preschools throughout Gaston and Lincoln counties in North Carolina love to visit the farm to pick berries or pumpkins, learn about plants and farming, and gain an appreciation for where their food originates.
