Junior Rangers...

We have the first of three Jr. Junior Ranger Programs at our farm today. Little Sprouts will run today and Saturday and for kids 4-6 and will teach them all about seeds and how they grow. At the end they will get to plant a tomato or pepper in the field.

The third program is in September and then the program will based on harvesting in the field and trying what are picked. Potatoes, tomatoes, beets and more are on the schedule for then...

But I thought I'd mention on the blog that there is still space for this Saturday's program at 1:30! If you have a child in this age, consider the program, we had great fun last year...

Junior Rangers...

Do you have a kid between 3 & 6? This summer we will be hosting 3 programs on our farm for the Junior-Junior Ranger Program. (Other Junior Ranger programs are available for older kids.)

Little Sprouts will be an opportunity for kids to come learn about seeds and actually have a chance to go into the field, plant a seedling, and pick something. One of the new farmers in the program attended with her little boys last year and shared some photos with me...

Ranger Katie helps teach the kids about seeds, after which they plant the varieties and then water them in...

Details of summer Junior Ranger programs will be coming soon...
