Join us for an 8-week series in which we will explore the arboretum as the season changes into Autumn. Topics include falling leaves, bird watching, bug habitats, saving seeds, and a special trick-or-treat day.

In this program, caregivers can expect their children to practice newly emerging motor skills, develop social skills through both imaginative and cooperative play, and foster a deeper sense of connection to nature and the changing seasons.

This class is best intended for ages 2-7 and is rain or shine. Caregivers are required to remain with children for the duration of the class. It is always wise to dress for a mess!

Join us on the CSA Farm for an 8-week mud kitchen cooking class where we will forage for ingredients and create a variety of recipes. These include, yet are not limited to: soups, salads, sandwiches, entrees, and of course dessert.

In this program, caregivers can expect their children to practice newly emerging motor skills, develop social skills through both imaginative and cooperative play, and foster a deeper sense of connection to nature. This class is best intended for ages 2-7 and is a rain-or-shine event. It is always wise to dress for a mess! Caregivers are required to remain with children for the duration of the class. This is a mock kitchen, all ingredients are inedible and are not to be consumed.
