Interactive Full Day Farm School Experience for Students at Jireh Hills Family Homestead
The Homestead Hands-On Learning Experience at Jireh Hills Family Homestead offers a comprehensive, full-day program designed to immerse students of all ages in the realities of farm life. Participants explore a diverse range of topics, from raising milking goats and alpacas for fibre to the specialized training of horses and ponies. This educational journey provides a rare, up-close look at the daily routines and responsibilities required to maintain a thriving, working homestead environment.
Students actively participate in essential farm chores, including feeding, scooping, and caring for a variety of animals. The program highlights the fascinating predator and prey relationships within the bunny circle and introduces guests to unique residents like Blinky, the blind baby cow. By engaging in these tasks, children and adults alike gain a profound understanding of where their food comes from and the dedicated effort required to raise animals with compassion and care.
The day begins at 10am in the heated BarnHouse, where students enjoy hot drinks during lunch, fostering a warm and social atmosphere. For families requiring additional support, the program offers extended care until 4pm, featuring supervised activities such as forest walks, creative worksheets, and gentle bunny snuggles. This flexibility ensures that parents can observe or participate alongside their children, making it an inclusive experience for all ages, with special family rates available for larger groups.
This hands-on program encourages curiosity and a deep connection with nature, providing practical skills and lasting memories. Students leave with a newfound appreciation for farm routines and animal behavior, having spent the day learning in an active, outdoor setting. Whether exploring the woodlands or tending to the livestock, the experience is designed to inspire the next generation of farmers and animal lovers through direct, meaningful interaction with the natural world.
