After School Programs |
Terra Firma Farm is pleased to invite you to participate in our Saturday programs. These programs are open to boys and girls, ages 5-12. Each Saturday will be filled with farm activities such as animal chores, planting, harvesting, baking, canning or candle making. Other activities included are scheduled to correlate with the seasonal influence on the farm. Each seasonal theme leads the group through adventures in the woods, pastures and barns. Programs begin at 10 AM and end at 2 PM. Tuition is $40 per child per Saturday. Programs are repeated twice monthly to help keep group sizes small in order to maximize your child's experience and learning. Monthly Topics
