Open Family Saturdays are an opportunity for families with children to enjoy exploring the Learning Farm, connect with the natural world, and learn about the seasonal themes presented by the Farm Eco-Center. At Open Family Saturday you will find self-led learning stations, get to feed the goats and visit the chickens, and also plenty of opportunities for free play and exploration. 

The theme for August is Down in the Dirt!  This month we are going to look beneath our feet into the wild and wonderful world of soil and dirt. Dirt is so important to the garden for so many reasons. Learn all about dirt at this epic event for families. 

Activities and crafts for Down in the Dirt are: 

• Vermicomposter
• Mud creations
• Composting the garden 
• Down in the Dirt Collages 

We cant' wait to see you there!
