New Winter Session:
❄️ Discover the magic of winter on the farm! While the fields may rest under a blanket of snow, there’s still plenty happening. Caring for our animals is a year-round task — feeding, watering, and keeping them cozy through the colder months. But that’s not all! In the greenhouse, we might stay busy (and warm!) learning new hands-on skills — from baking fresh bread and making hearty soups, to crafting by hand with natural materials. Children will experience the rhythms of farm life in winter, connect with animals, and take part in meaningful, down-to-earth activities that nurture both heart and hand. Join us to explore, create, and play — because winter on the farm is full of wonder, warmth, and learning!
PSST there is still plenty of time to play in the snow after all our hard work!!
This program is seasonally themed with a focus on connecting children to the farm, where their food comes from, and getting kids excited about healthy eating.
