Check Out Waltham Fields Community Farm's Spring and Summer Education Programs

Registration is now open for WFCF's Spring and Summer Learning Garden Programs!

Waltham Fields Community Farm’s Learning Garden Programs enable hands-on learning about natural ecosystems, crop production and the farm environment, nutrition and food choices, and group cooperation. Children participate in a range of activities such as planting vegetables, exploring the compost pile, observing wildlife, playing games, and cooking. We focus heavily on Farm-to-Table programming, providing opportunities for participants to make and try healthful, farm fresh snacks in the solar kitchen of our outdoor classroom.

Our spring programs include Little Sprouts for 2-4 year olds and caregivers, an after school program for elementary aged children and a 4H volunteer program for high school students.

Our summer programs include week-long (Monday-Friday, 9am-2:30pm) classes for grades K-8, as well as summer youth employment opportunities.
