About Fiddleheads: Preschool Drop-Off Series at Appleton Farms – SPRING SESSION 2027

Spring has sprung! It is an excellent time of year for exploring and learning on the farm. We will be planting, observing, exploring and learning in our garden. While also taking care of our animals and finding all the signs of spring that nature divulges. Join us on Wednesday mornings from 9:30AM to 12:30PM for a preschool drop-off series to educate your preschooler on farm animals, life cycles, plant parts, and farm fun!

After an opening circle, song, and morning observations, we’ll learn about the plants and animals that call the farm home and participate in daily barn and garden chores. We will also explore the woods and the wild animals while learning how to interact with nature, rather than impose upon it. We pause for lunch at 11:30 before finishing our day with farm crafts, games, songs, and stories–and say goodbye until next week!
