Objectives
Youngsters can actively meet the farm animals and create snacks using typical farm produce.
The group is divided in two: one part takes part in farm chores such as removing manure, feeding and caring for the animals, while the others process typical farm products in our educational kitchen.
As an option, we offer an interactive game introducing participants to the economic development of a Luxembourg farm from the 19th century to the present day.
Activities vary according to season and age.
Subjects:
Origin of our food, animal husbandry and its uses, digestion
