Come to the farm after school and explore the natural world this spring!  Participants will help educators establish a new garden area while making new friends and learning about growing (and eating) their own food! Occasional visits to the chicken coop and fiber rabbit cuddling included! 

Join WFCF Education team after school in our new learning location and 'farm on' with us. During this time of limited access to the Learning Garden area of 240 Beaver Street, the farmers have cleared a space in the farm rows for our community of learners!  With the shelter of the pole shed (currently known as the Volunteer Shed) on the west side of the area we farm, participants will grow together this spring directly in the farm soil! 

No matter where we plant ourselves, WFCF Education Programs continue to offer a variety of experiential, project-based adventures for learners of all ages, exploring agriculture, gardening, nature, culinary arts, sustainable homesteading, foraging, and science-based programs through hands-on experiences.

Scholarship and Waltham Resident Discounts available upon request. Contact WFCF Director of Education & Community Programs for more information or to make a request. 

A Note to All Registrants:  Please be aware that during this time of uncertainty, program schedules are subject to change. In the event that a program is forced to cancel due to limited access, all registrantants affected by such a closure will be refunded. More information regarding WFCF's Refund Policy can be found ON THIS PAGE (scroll to the bottom).  More information regarding WFCF access to farmed-land at 240 Beaver Street, impact on programs and actions the community can take to show support can be found HERE.
