Classes and Tours

During the Spring and Fall we are happy to arrange a farm tour for your educational group.  Tours are typically an hour long, and include an overview of the farm, visits with our many animals and lots of question and answer time!  You may extend your visit as long as you'd like to wander on your own, or to extend your educational programming with nature, writing or drawing activities that you provide.  There are a few picnic tables and grassy areas for groups that like to share a snack at the farm.  

Fee is $40 for groups of 20 or less.  For larger groups, we split the group into two and the cost is $80.   If you prefer to wander on your own, admission is $1.50 person.  Please contact us in advance to schedule your visit!

Bedford 4-H  Club Meetings with Leader Steve Hanna -  We now have more than 25 members from Bedford and nearby communities. We're serving a group of kids who generally miss out on 4-H activities: those who love animals but whose property is too small to keep a sheep or goat of their own. Thanks to Codman, they can get to know farm animals up close, do chores, and even lease an animal with which they can develop a real relationship.  To find out more information or to join the group, contact Steve Hanna at (781) 275-1379.  Select this link for a list of all the Massachusetts 4-H clubs
