What happens if the weather is bad? Farm School is an all weather program that runs rain or shine.  We have options to move our classes into the greenhouse to provide shelter from poor weather.  If the weather poses a risk (severe weather) the Farm School director will make a decision to cancel in the best interest of everyones safety. We do not offer credits or refunds for classes missed due to poor weather.

​

We aren't able to make all of the classes, can someone take our spot?  Absolutely! We understand that summer holidays are likely to happen during our program and would love to see your spot filled by a friend or family member.  If someone is coming in your place please let us know in advance.
