Family Field Trip @ Youth Farm

July 24, 2018 @ 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM

Bring the whole family out for a fun-filled afternoon in the garden or on the farm! New in 2017, Community GroundWorks is thrilled to offer Family Field Trips. Each field trip will feature hands-on outdoor activities for parents and kids of all ages: harvest and cook a healthy snack, plant seedlings, explore the worm compost bins, or create outdoor art. At the Youth Farm, on Madison’s east side, unique experiences include meeting our honey bees or packing fresh produce to donate to the local food pantry.

Deadline to register is noon the day prior to your field trip.
