SUMMARY:February Vacation at Appleton Farms – The Trustees of Reservations
DESCRIPTION:In the winter\, many people hunker down to stay indoors\, but at Appleton Farms\, we make the most of the cold\, quiet season. There is no better place to spend winter farm days than in exploring in the snow and learning to love the outdoors in all seasons! This program is for kids who are looking to make friends\, explore the forests and fields of the farm\, and learn about life in New England in winter\, including learning about a type of winter farming – maple sugaring! Every day will include an outdoor adventure of hiking\, snowshoeing\, or other farm explorations. \nThis is a school vacation drop-off program running Monday-Friday 9am-3pm\, February 16-20. Campers should be prepared to spend days mostly outdoors and will need appropriate clothes including hats\, gloves\, and boots. We will have snack and lunch on the farm (families provide their own campers’ food). A parent handbook will be provided to all parents and registration requires submission of child’s health forms\, per licensing requirements. This program is licensed by the Ipswich Board of Health.

Every day will include an outdoor adventure of hiking\, snowshoeing\, or other farm explorations. \nThis is a school vacation drop-off program running Monday-Friday 9am-3pm\, February 16-20. Campers should be prepared to spend days mostly outdoors and will need appropriate clothes including hats\, gloves\, and boots. We will have snack and lunch on the farm (families provide their own campers’ food).
