Farms for City Kids

Farms for City Kids is a unique educational program combining classroom study with firsthand farming experience to give urban kids an understanding of how vital academics are to everyday life. Our fifth grade students spend several days at Spring Brook Farm in Reading, VT in the program, milking cows, growing vegetables, and helping with the farm’s general upkeep.  By achieving such hands-on project success‚ our students build interpersonal‚ leadership and problem-solving skills.
