Program Calendar—Spring Programs

PortugueseJust 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!
