Program Description

Event Details

Are you interested in teaching your kids where their food comes from, how to care for animals, or make things with their own hands?

Even if you don’t have any land, our homesteading classes offer fun, hands-on experiences where kids get to learn and make something to take home at every single lesson— perfect for curious young learners.

In Session I, learn about how to protect your birds from predators and keep your chickens happy.
