When you give children the space and opportunity to explore, investigate, dream and play, that’s when imagination and creativity come to life. Children’s Classes at the Maker Farm are led by an experienced teaching staff who engage kids in art activities, recycled crafts, sewing, theater, horseback riding, cooking, farming, and much more.
The Maker Farm hosts a Massachusetts-certified summer camp. Create, grow and celebrate this summer at The Maker Farm’s summer camp. There’s something for every child – pony camps at the barn, theater in the garden, arts & crafts classes for Juniors and Advanced makers, farm sports, filmmaking, and so much more. Each day, camps kick off with an All-Camp Jamboree including fun games and activities. We’re excited to offer so much more to nourish your child’s imagination and spirit! We’re working on pulling together fun summer activities for 2020. In the meantime, we are enrolling for our popular Counselor in Training program and new Unplugged camp for kids going into grades 7-10.
At the Maker Farm, we believe creativity has no age boundaries. Our baby, toddler & preschool activities and classes are designed to engage our youngest makers (ages 0-6 years) and the important people in their world – moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends.
Creativity and imagination abound in our weekly classes. From masterpiece art to sewing, our unique classes are designed to tap into children’s natural curiosity and unbridled imaginations. There is no “right way” nor “wrong way” at the Maker Farm just a wonderful journey down the path of the child’s imagination guided by our experienced teaching staff.
Each season, children in our Theater Troupe bring plays, storytelling, music and history to life on stage. Guided by Emily Piper, children experience the excitement of pulling together a complete theater production culminating in a live performance for family and friends. From Swingin’ and Jivin’ Princesses to A Christmas in Concord, our plays are custom-tailored for all levels and abilities so each child plays a role.
When school is out, send your children over to the Maker Farm for workshops filled with creativity, exploration, friendships, and fun. We offer workshops and camps for most Westford “out of school” days – holidays, early release days, February & April vacation weeks, and more!
More than riding instruction, our horse classes and camps guide children in horsemanship, round pen work, safe handling practices, caring for horses and their living environments, and riding with instructor, Lori Caouette, at Meadowbrook Stables. We cater to a wide-range of riding abilities.
