#EarthWeek starts today with a Litter Pick-Up Walk! Grab your gloves and a garbage bag and head out around your block or to a local park to pick up waste. You’ll be amazed at what a difference you can make in just 20 minutes to an hour!
Follow along with us as we celebrate with Earth Week! Each day, participate in one act that celebrates our planet. You can follow along with our schedule or make up your own.
Migratory birds are among the most beautiful and exciting wildlife we can view! Going out on a birding excursion to search for them is a great way to get outside and appreciate the changing of the seasons.
These ladies look like they’re up to no good… Let’s read a story about their cunning characteristics for this week’s Farmyard Storytime! Today we’re reading “The Great Sheep Shenanigans” and paying an up close visit to some of our little lambs.
The annual migration of amphibians happens in early April and is called ‘The Big Night’. This is a great time of year to head out to search for amphibians on your own. All you need is this ‘Spotted’ activity, a warm coat, and maybe a small clear Tupperware container.
It’s early April, the ideal time to plant carrots seeds directly in our raised beds. Farmers Tom and Eliza will walk us through the details of what you need to know to plant your own carrots, covering topics like pelletized vs. raw seeds, length to germination, using row cover, and more.
Spring is a great time to start gardening, but it doesn’t always have to be outdoors! Try your hand at planting your own homemade chia pet. This is a fun small activity to bring some green into your home and get some dirt under your fingernails.
We hopped on to Facebook Live for a visit with our growing chicks! We’ll learn more about our one-week-old broilers and read “Lulu the Big Little Chick”. Watch through to the end for an up close look at our two new lambs!
This week we’re reading “The Greedy Goat”, a story that’s very fitting for some special members of our barnyard worth celebrating. Our three goat brothers, Ghost, Jack, and Snuggles, turn 3 this weekend!
We went to Facebook Live to stream Farmyard Storytime! Follow along as Educator Andrew reads “Click, Clack, Moo”. What will Farmer Brown find when he hears typing sounds coming from the barn?
