Choose your own snacking adventure with this farm-to-plate workshop for the whole family! Choose two recipes to create: starting with harvesting fresh ingredients from our garden and ending with a take-home treat. Explore our farm and visualize firsthand how our food moves from soil to stomach.
Join us to learn the science and steps of water bath canning and live fermentation! Get hands-on experience with these two food preservation techniques: perfect for gardeners wanting to save their harvests, or those wanting to do some culinary experimentation.
Merry Lea Farm of Goshen College welcomes children & adults to tour our pastures, vegetable gardens and orchards as we will talk about the farm as an ecosystem. You will get close-up interactions with our goats, pigs, and chickens and become more connected to food from the earth.
