Farm School is a 2-3 overnight stay on the farm available in the spring and fall.

Students who attend this two night, three day farm experience will come away with a new respect for the land and those who farm it, a deeper connection to food, and a better understanding of their role in the local and global food system.
Students will learn about all the steps necessary to bring fresh produce to market. They will sow seeds, plant crops, cultivate fields and garden beds, harvest their own lunch, and tend some of the farm animals.
