Educational programs at Cedar Circle Farm encourage the interdisciplinary study of agriculture and the natural world. Our knowledgeable educators engage students of all ages through hands-on, inquiry-based learning experiences.
All our guests are welcome to stay and use the areas around the farm to have lunch before / after your lesson. There are tables and benches available for use.
