Participants can expect about a mile of walking.
Put on your boots and be prepared for a special behind the scenes visit to one of the most interesting places on the whole farm…our pastures! You will get a chance to get up close with our cows as they feed on forage and learn about how we care for these animals and our land. We’ll also focus on how our farmers rotate cows between the different pastures, and make sure our milking herd is getting the best possible grasses and feed. Please be prepared to walk through active pastures with cows. Boots highly recommended.
Come join us on the farm and take a closer look into our dairy operations here at Wolfe’s Neck Center. Explore the public areas of our new dairy facility and meet our hardworking cows and calves, and step into our parlor viewing room between 3-4pm daily in the winter to witness a milking session. This behind the scenes peek is a great chance to get up close and see how our farmers care for our animals and learn some fun cow facts to take home with you. Viewing room is open daily—no registration needed.
Bring your boots as we head out to pasture for an up close look at our mobile chicken tractor. We’ll learn all about how we raise our laying hens here at Wolfe’s Neck Center and keep our ladies healthy and happy! You’ll even get to gather your own eggs to take with you for your next breakfast.
Come get a “taste” of the farm as you visit our organic vegetable gardens and fields! You’ll see and taste the fruits and vegetables that are in season and harvest them for a snack made with organic Stonyfield yogurt produced with milk from our cows.
Bring your young farmers to the barnyard for a morning of fun! We’ll start with a quick story before our little farmers help with farm chores and explore. We’ll also meet the animals and participate in activities with rotating themes. A perfect morning playdate with friends! One free adult per child, $5 per additional adult.
Join us for a farm-themed story time! We’ll meet in our barn (or inside the farmhouse in the winter) to read a few stories about our different farm animals and more. Sit back and bring a snack, if you’d like!
Join the goat herd! We’ll meet at our Wishcamper Livestock Education barn and browse the trails through the woods on a one mile loop with a few of our curious goats. Since we are a working farm, we require parents remain with their children at all times. Walking loop has a few hills.
Meander through the woods of Wolfe’s Neck Center with one of our educators and search for salamanders under logs, snakes basking in the sun, and signs of other wildlife that inhabit the forests bordering our barnyard. Come prepared for a hike and exploration off of the beaten trail! Closed-toed shoes are recommended.
Climb aboard our hay wagon and travel through time as you hear stories of the ship captains, fishermen, farmers, teachers, and homemakers who have lived on Wolfe’s Neck over the past 250 years! Wolfe’s Neck Center is a unique saltwater farm with over a half-century of raising food and growing community. This “Wagon Ride to the Past” is a unique opportunity to learn from local historians about the history of our oceanfront farm and the surrounding countryside.
What better way to round out your weekend than with an ice cream sundae! We’ll learn about the sweet dairy treat as we work together to make our own small batch with simple wholesome ingredients. While it’s churning, we will take a tour to learn more about these delicious ingredients, and then of course taste our creation.
At Wolfe’s Neck Center, we’re giving a happy hour special in the form of a haywagon ride—2 people for the price of one! So grab a snack or a beverage and join us for a scenic 30 minute cruise around our property to start off your weekend.
