Farm Family Hours
Where Learning Thrives
Farm Family Hours
All families of Baltimore City Public Schools students and staff are welcome to Farm Family Hours, where families are invited to immerse themselves in nature and agriculture! Visit the farm for an unforgettable experience as you meet the friendly animals, connect with the land, learn about sustainable farming practices, and embrace the joys of outdoor exploration.
Friends of Great Kids Farm provides critical support to keep these offerings free and accessible to all students in Baltimore City, but these programs are managed and led by Farm to School staff, part of Baltimore City Public Schools’ Food & Nutrition Services.
