Focus on Hanley Farm – June 2015

With two successful events under our belt that kicked-off the season, summer is now in full-swing at Hanley Farm. The annual Heritage Plant & Garden Fair and Children’s Heritage Fair seem to improve each year, with more community support than ever. We hope you had the opportunity to enjoy these May events at the Farm.

This month, join us for the Artist Day & Craft Fair on June 20th! This event showcases a variety of skilled artisans and crafters from across the Rogue Valley. Artists will be demonstrating and selling their work across the Farm. But that’s not all! Bring the whole family to enjoy old-fashioned games, live music, and local food for sale! Join us for the Artist Day & Craft Fair from 10:00am-3:00pm. Admission is FREE!

2015 Summer Camp Registration—Now is also the time to sign up your children and grandchildren for Summer Camp at the Farm. Registration is now easier than ever, online at HanleyFarm.org. But sign up now, as we are filling up quickly. Many of our campers return year after year, because experiencing life on the Farm is so much fun. Each day at camp, campers take on a variety of farm chores such as collecting eggs, feeding the goats and sheep, and harvesting from the gardens. Campers also learn lots of new nature and heritage-themed crafts such as candle-making, lead rubbing, collecting and drying herbs, and so much more. Each day, campers help prepare a farm-fresh lunch using ingredients we harvest from the gardens. They will certainly learn a lot about the Hanley family and our local farming history, especially after touring inside the Hanley House museum! Last, but not least, each year, campers look forward to hiking to the top of Hanley Hill to enjoy a picnic, a nature scavenger hunt, and the breathtaking views of the Valley. Camp is $195 per week, Monday-Friday, 9:00am-1:00pm, lunch included.
