Spend Spring Vacation Week on the farm this year!  Participants will spend the week exploring the magic (and science) of the garden, farm and kitchen through interdisciplinary activities, nature crafts, culinary projects, and more! Guided by WFCF educators, and with the company of our egg laying hens and fiber producing rabbits, youth in 1st through 8th grade are invited on this farm adventure.

Join WFCF Education Team 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.

A healthy snack will be provided daily.  Youth will make treats together on some days. Recipes and more information will be provided to registrants leading up the this special program week. 

* 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.
