Family Programs
Family Programs are offered on most weekends
throughout the spring and fall and consist of Family Farm Days,
Toddler Days, and Family Campouts. Some Family Farm Days have special themes, such as Sheep to Shawl, Ocean Exploration Day and Mothers Day. We also offer two special family events: Spring Fling and Harvest Celebration.
Pre-registration is required for all Family Programs.
