Peter Rabbit Tea
One of our favorite events for wee ones. Especially planned for
toddlers through grade three, our day includes the reading of the
Beatrix Potter favorite, a lunch from Mr. McGregor's garden. We'll plant
seeds, rake and hoe, and spend time with Peter himself and at least one
sister!

Hands On Day
What a wonderful way to educate young people (all ages) about life on an American farm. Our Hands On Day can fit into earth science programs, history programs, literary and visual arts programs, food science and nutrition programs.
