What’s New

Early Release Pizza Fun : February 2nd!

Thursday February 2, 2 – 3:30pm. $25, $20 Friends of the Farm.

Elementary students in Grades 2 to 5 are invited to join our Farm Educator  for an afternoon of pizza making.

Using vegetables preserved from previous seasons as well as some freshly harvested winter vegetables students will prepare the ingredients and then make their very own pizza. Once home,( with the help of an adult) simply place it in the oven and in no time you will have a tasty treat for all to share.

All ingredients will be provided but we do ask that students bring their own pan to prepare their pizza on.

If you are interested in registering for this class please contact Alison directly at education@newtoncommunityfarm.org

Instructor: Alison Wilson, Farm Educator. Location: Farm Kitchen
