Farm Days  - Limited Dates Available

​Monday thru Friday in May
10:00 am to 1:30 pm

Minimum of 15 students required
Farm Days is designed for First Grade; however, we are happy to scale this program to meet learning expectations for other grade levels or learning abilities.
Explore a Real Ranch!
 Farm Days Learning Stations Include:
  • Plant Relay and Planting:  Students learn about what a seed needs to grow through playing our "Plant Relay" and planting in our Where Food Comes FromTM school garden
  • Be a Busy Bee:  Through role playing (as bees), students learn about the process and importance of pollination
  • Make Butter:  Using MyPlate, students are reminded about the five food groups.  Students will also learn from a real Dairy Farmer and make real butter!
  • Livestock:   While visiting CALF's livestock, students will learn about livestock and their roles on farms and ranches.
Farm Days programs start at 10 am at CALF's Lowell Ranch on Plum Creek (about 3 miles south of Castle Rock).  Each student should bring their own sack lunch, good walking shoes, and dress for the weather.
