Homeschool Classes

Join us for interactive, farm-based outdoor learning. The Remick classroom is an entire farmstead: a diverse and dynamic setting. Created and led by Program Manager/Educator Jim Cruickshank (read his bio), our programming incorporates agriculture, nature, science and/or math.

    • Classes are season-based and feature discovery through the senses and hands-on activities.
    • Group interaction and discussion encourages a deeper understanding of each themed class — class list provided below.
    • Classes are offered September to June and are for students ages 5 and above.
    • Pre-registration is required, call (603) 323-7591 to register.
      Registration is required by the Friday prior to each scheduled class.
      We are unable to accommodate walk-ins for homeschool classes.
    • Classes take place in rain, snow or shine, and a majority of each lesson will take place outdoors: all participants should be prepared to spend time outdoors.
    • This is not a drop-off program: parents and guardians should be prepared to be with the group and are encouraged to participate.
    • Class size is limited and may be impacted by the scheduled class; early registration is encouraged.
    • COST: $5 per person (child and parent/chaperone)
      For ages 5 & up.
      Pre-registration is required by the Friday prior to each class date.
      To register or for more information, call (603) 323-7591.

Non-registration inquiries may be emailed to program manager Jim Cruickshank, or reach him by phone at (603) 323-7591.

“We had a lovely class this morning… with a wide range of activities and learning. I’m so glad I could bring my children this morning to observe, collect, adventure, and create!”

MAY 18 | Beginning Birding
The farm is a great place to make bird observations due to our proximity to ponds and rivers, open fields, and forested areas. Join Jim on a hike across the Remick farmstead to learn about the many wild birds on the property! Migrating birds should have made it back to New Hampshire, so participants will:
  • Learn how to use binoculars.
  • Search for, and make observations about, our flying friends.

JUNE 15 | Goats and Kids
Get to know our goats and new arrivals… the goat kids! (We might even help train them for a goat hike.) Observe and learn about:

  • Goat behaviors of both adults and young farm animals.
  • How Remick goats engage with their environment.
  • The needs of goats and their kids.
  • The role of goats on the Remick farmstead.
