Fourth graders extract honey from beeswax and churn butter to make honey butter
At Paradise Farm, we offer adults and children an opportunity to develop a real relationship with their agricultural heritage and the food they eat, through experiences grounded in meaningful work and hands-on exploration.
When folks come to Paradise Farm, a non-profit farm education program, they have an opportunity to deepen their experience with hands-on learning, reap what they have sown, and eat what they have harvested. They get to know the plants and animals at the farm. It is truly place-based education at its finest. Our parent-child programs offer an opportunity to do real work, form lasting friendships, and build a relationship with the farm.
Some of the experiences adults and kids have enjoyed at Paradise Farm:
Gardening (planting and harvesting)
Cooking
Fire building
Composting
Vermiculture
Soil Study
Arts and Handwork
Games
Animal care
Natural plant dyeing
Wool felting
Honey bee care
Chores
and more!
Paradise Farm education program is run by Mary O'Connell, educator for over 20 years. Mary and her husband, Jim, are the current stewards of Paradise Farm.
