Programs

For 35 years in a stunning outdoor setting, Slide Ranch has used its organic farm and garden to infuse students and other group participants with a sense of place in the natural world, and to offer them a taste of farm-fresh produce, eggs and milk.

Slide Ranch serves groups ranging in age from nursery school to high school. We strive to reach participants from low-income, ethnically diverse and special needs populations, with a third of these participants receiving scholarship subsidies, so the experience is available to youth who would not otherwise be able to participate.

Group Programs

Group Programs are hands-on weekday and overnight farm workshops primarily attended by school children and community groups in the spring and fall. Slide Ranch teachers lead program participants through a variety of educational themes and activities tailored to meet each group’s needs. For all ages. More Info
