AfterSchool
Green Thumb
Club
Ages 6+ | Grades K–5 | Fridays 4:30–6:00 PM | Multi-Week Sessions | $20/child $15 siblings
A hands-on afterschool program where kids ages 6+ get outside, get curious, and get growing — exploring gardening, sustainability, art, wellness, animals, and nutrition every Friday at the farm.
WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT
A Place to Explore, Create & Grow
Green Thumb Club is a casual, fun afterschool program designed to get kids off the couch and into the garden. Each Friday session is hands-on and activity-based — exploring what it means to grow food, care for animals, make things with their hands, and take care of themselves and the planet.
No experience needed. No pressure. Just curious kids, fresh air, and good dirt.
WHAT KIDS WILL DO

Junior Farm Leaders
Got a motivated middle or high schooler who loved the farm? We're building a Junior Farm Leaders program where older kids (ages 11+) come back as helpers, mentors, and co-facilitators for Green Makers sessions.
It's a great way for teens to build leadership skills, earn volunteer hours, and deepen their connection to the farm — while being genuinely awesome role models for the younger kids.
