Parent/Caregiver & Tot Farm Program- Ages 0-5

Come explore the farm with your little one! Parent and child farm group led by owners Michelle or Jess (BCYC). These offerings will provide you with the opportunity to build connection with animals and others in your community while allowing your child to play, build social skills, feel purposeful, and cultivate a sense of nature awareness. We will do animal feedings, grooming, snuggling, and farm jobs such as mucking (scooping poop), filling water buckets, collecting chicken eggs. Playing at the playground and water mud kitchen is always an option!
Each session is tailored to the children present to meet their interests and needs. We will also incorporate nature crafts and other fun activities to suit the seasons.
All caregivers welcome, expect dirty hands! Siblings welcome for an additional charge of $5 per week (babies not walking are Free)

Land Learners Family Program- Ages 4+

This program has a focus for children aged 4+ but younger siblings are welcome to join along. f your children are home-schooled (or intend to) or taking a break from school, or you simply want something fun for the whole family to do, join us on the farm to learn and play. As a collective, we work together to establish and do farm jobs and activities. This is an important part of providing children an opportunity to take on responsibilities and be an active part of helping out on the farm. There are creative opportunities each week, as well as land learning and exploring, hiking, and being apart of different farm education opportunities. Our hope is to establish a community where families/caregivers can share their passions and skills with the group and we can all learn together. Animal connection time and play is always an option!
