Farm Kids School Holiday Chickens Workshop
Sep 27th @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm | $70 | ages 5 – 15yrs
At the beginning of each workshop we take the children on an educational and fun tour of The Farm. We educate them about our cows, pigs, bees, chickens, flower crops, herb garden, orchard and veggie crops. We discuss concepts like paddock rotation for the animals, pollination, organic farming, healthy soil and composting and other ethical farming practices. The children get up close and personal with our pet chickens and when available we taste veggies, edible flowers and herbs.
Discussion
We talk about how healthy chickens have healthy eggs.
Activities
We make honey piklets from farm fresh honey and eggs.
We upcycle the egg shells from our cooking to make egg heads with watercress hair.
