Here in the Netherlands farmers (together with supermarkets) organize activities for families to come and visit the farm a few times a year. It's this type of transparency that should be encouraged. I think most farmers are proud enough about their work to show people the work they do.

I wish that this was something that would happen! It would help tremendously with people understanding the process. Thats so cool that they do that in the Netherlands!
Sorry for the slow reply. You could propose such thing to the farmers that you work with... and then contact schools in the neighbourhood. Encourage teachers to set up a teaching plan (depending on your place, the local government might subsidise it to some extend) and have kids visit one of the farms to have a look during a field trip. This is one example how you could start such thing, with some creativity more would be possible.
