Farm Fresh Kids is an educational summer program for kids hosted at the farm for ages 6 and up.

Rain day Tuesday/ Thursday
June 23 -27 - July 7 - 11 -July 21-25
This program is designed to introduce children to the fundamentals of farming while offering a fun and educational outdoor adventure.
Throughout the summer, we offer three sessions, with each session meeting three times a week for two hours each day. Each day at Farm Fresh Kids begins with engaging lessons about the environment and food. We use plants for demonstrations and encourage everyone to share their thoughts and knowledge. After the lesson, the kids are able to participate in fun farm themed activities! This can range from planting seedlings to take home, drawing garden signs, and exciting hikes that explore Wind Hill’s Fields and Longo Open Space Fields.
