In our Fruit Jam-Boree workshop, we invite zestful children to join our youth educators Trish & Cara for a fruit-centered class amongst the farm fields, greenhouses, and orchard!
This is a perfect morning activity for curious children to experience the tastes, smells, sounds, and feel of our certified organic farm in a whole new way. They will explore the practice of growing food while having fun outdoors, interacting with nature, and getting crafty!
This workshop will start with a body and mind check-in that will set the tone for the day, bringing more joy and mindfulness into their experience on the farm and beyond! In this workshop, students will go on a harvesting adventure in the berry patch in search of tools for the day’s craft. Using berries and surrounding herbs and vegetables that are abundant, students will create vegetable prints to take home. Harvest, Stamp, Frame, and admire for years to come! In addition, students will experience the juicy (and slightly messy) fun of making jam, and will go home with a 4oz jar that they crafted through every step of the process: from harvesting to mashing to enjoying. We hope they’ll leave feeling so berry proud of their work!
*Must be at least entering Kindergarten in the fall and be OK without parents for the 2 hours!
