Farm Hands Registration Deadline April 27

Apr 27, 2023, 12:00 am, at Aldermere Farm

Register here.

Young people ages 10 to 18 are invited to get up close and personal with the Belted Galloway calves at Aldermere Farm, a historic saltwater farm preserve located at 20 Russell Avenue in Rockport. Aldermere Farm will host Farm Hands, a free, experiential program for participants to practice haltering, grooming, and leading young calves. Participants will learn about agriculture and best practices for handling livestock while providing an important community service to the farm by helping train calves so they are easier to manage when they are full-grown.

Generous support from donors makes this educational program free to every participant.

 

Schedule

Farm Hands will run for two consecutive weeks, May 1st to 12th, every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 3:30-5:00 p.m.
