A four-day workshop to help farmers engage and inspire visitors

Are you looking to build a farm-based education program, or inspire your existing programming? At this long-running workshop, you’ll fill your toolbox with kid-tested activities as you join a community of peers from around the region.

ABCs is designed for farmers, farm-based educators, and non-formal educators with any level of teaching experience who are building or looking to re-inspire farm-based programming.

Co-presented with the Farm-Based Education Network, a project of Shelburne Farms.
