Over the years Henny Penny has hosted tours and workshops for schools, homeschool groups, girl scout troops, social clubs and more. All tours and workshops are led by Farmer Whitney.

Most popular is our Tour and Craft Combo. Attendees are given a 45min-1hr tour. There is always opportunity for hands on with the particular animals on our farm that enjoy human interaction, which animals depends on time of year. This is then followed by a craft that can range from 30 min to an hour and a half. Crafts are geared towards the age group, amount of time desired and budget.

Examples of crafts we have offered:

  • planting seeds and seedlings
  • wool needle felting or wet felting
  • making felted soap
  • make an easy birdfeeder (for younger children)
  • make a nature stick (children age 4-10 usually)
