For almost twenty years, WFCF Learning Garden Programs have been enabling hands-on learning about science and natural ecosystems, crop production and the farm environment, nutrition and food choices, and group cooperation. In the Learning Garden, children participate in a range of activities such as planting vegetables, exploring the compost pile, caring for our chickens, observing wildlife, playing games, and cooking. We focus on hands-on Farm-to-Table programming, providing opportunities for participants to prepare and eat healthy, farm fresh snacks in the solar kitchen of our outdoor classroom.

Spring Little Sprouts: Ages 2-4 + Caregivers on Thursday and Fridays. Explore the sights, sounds and taste of spring on the farm with your young gardener!

Spring After School Garden & Farm Explorers: Ages 5-13 on Thursdays and Fridays. Gardening, cooking healthy snacks and caring for the WFCF chickens are only a few of the farm-based nature exploration activities you'll participate in!

Spring Garden Corps: Ages 13-18, farming program for teens that counts towards community service requirements. Involves cooking, gardening and caring for our chickens on the farm, as well as learning about sustainable agriculture, developing leadership and group cooperation skills.

We look forward to seeing you on the farm this spring!
