OVERVIEW
At Frog Hollow Farm, we are passionate about including our community in our journey toward regenerative agriculture and a sustainable and equitable food system. Empowering responsible land stewardship in others is core to our mission and so we invite people from every fold of our community to join us in learning opportunities on the farm.

WORKSHOPS AND ACTIVITIES (Choose One)
We encourage individuals to taste test different varieties of the same fruit, in order to appreciate the complexities of each variety. For example, you can taste test our 5 different types of pluots, or compare our 3 pear varieties in the Fall. We can also walk participants through Brix testing, which is a process used to measure the sugars in fruits to determine readiness for harvest using a refractometer.
An interactive walk around the vegetable garden. Smell herbs, taste kale, look at starters in the greenhouse. Learn about and observe different crops at various stages of life. Discuss beneficial plants, pollination in the garden, and meet our family of chickens.
Using clues, students will search the garden for all sorts of plants and animals. Clues will encourage students to use all of their senses; to feel a fuzzy leaf, spot a dragonfly, taste an herb or observe curly chicken feathers. Recommended for students K-4th grade.
Learn to make and taste test a simple and healthy snack using ingredients from our farm. For example, make Kale-pomegranate salad or homemade plum lemonade (Additional cost may apply).
