Description

Explore the entirety of the farm from the chickens to the orchard, the fields to the greenhouses. Delicious farm inspired snacks provided daily. In the full day version of our Farmer in Training program, delve deeper into farm life and broaden your skills and understanding of what it means to be a farmer in 2018. Spend more time in the field planting, weeding and harvesting, play games and cook up some tasty delights in our Barn kitchen. Mornings are described as above while in the afternoons we will welcome a local chef, local artist, or other artisans as we learn new skills that are founded in nature and celebrate the beauty and bounty of the farm.

Session 2: Journey across the globe and discover a world of diverse foods, traditions, farms and markets. Terrace farming, chocolate growing, floating food markets, and breakfast traditions across the globe all await our exploration and investigation. Using Skype in the Classroom connect with people near and far and even try our hand at some of their techniques and traditions here at the farm. Become a global explorer, dig in the learning garden, and harvest produce for globally inspired delights. This is an adventure not to be missed! Bring lunch each day.
