Farmhouse Family Day: Lovely Leaves
October 16, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
Free
Listen to the leaves dancing in the wind as we discover some interesting facts about their shape, color, and size!
Let’s explore how leaves change from bright green to warm orange in just the matter of weeks during our October Farmhouse Family Day. Stop by and join us in creating textured leaf prints to get a closer look into the structure of many different leaves. Feel free to stay for a tour of our historic house or just to play with some outdoor colonial games and toys. Family Day is from 11AM to 3PM, with the textured leaf print activity beginning at 1PM.
What to expect on your visit:
- Farmhouse Family Day is free and open to all ages, ideal for children ages 4-10.
- The textured leaf printing activity will begin at 1PM.
