Hello Learning 4 Life supporters!! Happy New Year to you all! I wanted to give a quick update on what is going on here at The Farm. Jamie and Amanda have been working hard coming up with workshops for the students to do during these cold winter months. We are currently looking to hire a new Program director, someone who helps run the student groups, and we're hoping to fill that very soon!
The students have been working on clearing out the hoop house so we can begin planning and planting in the new year. We are all set to get our heated hoop house up and running thanks to Jamie, so we are excited to get "starts" going in the workshop! Woohoo! The alpacas are doing great, and the kids have been continuing their care. We have begun incorporating some natural crafts and other fun hands-on activities for the winter months. Sensory items are now available for students to use during breaks, and we are working to improve our sensory room in the workshop for students to use as well. With students returning from winter break, we are looking forward to utilizing alpaca 3rds ("waste" fiber from legs and stomachs) to create some useful items for students to take home and to stock our farmstand! Lots of exciting things happening this year! We are hoping to have a small event around Easter here at The Farm. We will keep you posted on the details of this! Everyone stay warm this January and well! Thanks again for all of your continued support!
