Give a gift of real adventure! We offer “Fun on the Farm” gift packages for all ages, as well as "Foster a Farm Friend" programs. Experience hands-on learning and receive your picture of your fostered farm animal and certificate with each gift.
Can’t keep a goat, sheep, horse, or cow in your backyard, but always wanted to? Want to “try on” the farming experience without “buying the farm?” Foster a Farm Friend through the Flint Hill Farm Educational Center’s unique hands-on weekend or school break programs. You will experience hands-on care, feeding, and grooming between you and your fostered farm animal. One-to-one instruction provided. Minors require adult supervision. Picture and Friend Certificate accompanies each experience.
