Swimsuits & Towels!
A Joy for Being in the outdoors!
While we don't have a pool, we have one of the most extensive sprinkler systems in the city, and irrigation water is clean and cold! The swimsuits are for enjoying the water, the towels are for cool down and clean up after farm activities!
Children will have plenty of time for outdoor play and activity as they interact with each other and the farm. Our program fully immerses children into a working farm. They will be introduced to soil chemistry and cover cropping, composting and vermiculture, as well as planning and planting. They will also learn about organic supplements and additives, use of "friendly" insects and how we treat pests. The children will have opportunity to harvest from both plants and animals each day. They will directly participate in the care of animals each day as well, learning the vital role these partners play on the farm.
