Adult and Family Programs at the Farm
Learning on the farm isn’t just for kids!
Whether you’re looking to grow your own food, care for your own livestock, or craft using organic and natural materials, come explore our Adult Program offerings.
We started this latest effort with a series of workshops in fall 2022, including weaving with natural materials, wreath making, and flower pressing. The Suburban Farmer Workshop Series, aimed at folks looking to sustainably and regeneratively produce more from the land they live on, ran in Spring and Fall 2023, featuring a range of subjects.
We have more in store for 2024, so join our newsletter or follow us on social media to see the latest!
Adult and Family Workshops - Fall 2024
Join Farmer Meeghan on Saturday mornings and learn more on how to incorporate nature and farm life into fun crafty projects. Identify pokeweed and make your own ink or create a birdhouse from a gourd! This program is recommended for families with children ages 5-15.
Notes
Cost is $15 per child, adults attend for free. This is not a drop-off program; children will need to be with their adults at all times.
Families should wear sturdy, closed toe shoes, long pants and long sleeves that can all get a little wet and muddy.
Create your own long-lasting dried flower wreath with Farmer Mike, using our very own dried organic flowers.
This workshop is designed for ages 16 and up; if you have a younger child interested in participating, please reach out to us.
