Just when you think that winter will never end, spring on the
FARM arrives bursting with signs of new life, and with the slower
pace of the cold months left behind there is much work to be done!
This season's activities will revolve around the discovery and exploration of
the new life found in the fields, barns and gardens at Katama Farm--caring for
new lambs, calves and chicks and spending time planting, cultivating and nurturing
little seedlings. Don't let spring showers spoil the day!
