This Saturday:
Ice Cream Party!
July 2 | 10:00–4:00 p.m.

Farmer Jim and his crew will use a "hit and miss" engine to churn gallons of ice cream in the shade of a maple tree...while live music by the Jugtown Mountain String Band, kids’ games, and a sailboat craft ($4.50 materials fee) add to the fun on the front lawn. Ice cream, wagon rides, and lunch fare are available for purchase.

Learning and Fun on the Farm!

Preschool Fridays on the Farm are designed for preschool through early elementary-aged children (though older siblings are welcome too). Program participants will engage in the same activities as children living on a 1900s farm, while learning what “Share the Harvest” means at Howell Farm today.

On-Site and Virtual Field Trips

Howell Farm's hands-on field trips are designed for schools and families, bringing students of all ages through the fields, woods and barns of a real working farm. Along the way, they learn about the history, technology, and science of farming in the past and in the present. Learn more about this season's programs below!
