Springtime at Putah Farm!


Feeling spring is in the air? We can't think of a better way to celebrate and experience the arrival of spring than visiting The Center for Land-Based Learning for their upcoming Springtime On The Farm on Putah Creek.

On April 1 you'll be able to explore the farm where there are miles of walking trails along Putah Creek, a bountiful organic market garden, hedgerows in full bloom, ponds of teaming tadpoles, birds and wildlife all around. A few of the many hands-on activities offered the day of the event will include hayrides, a guided educational walk along Putah Creek and the cultivation of spring vegetables in the garden.

You can take part in the feeding and gathering of eggs and hold a cute baby chick!

And all ages will be invited to take part in the study of soil in the soil pit and learn about the many species of birds and other wildlife around the farm.

Just don't forget your camera and a picnic lunch!

WHEN: April 1
TIME: Noon - 4:00 p.m.

For more information and directions visit the Center for Land-Based Learning's web site: www.landbasedlearning.org or call 530-795-1520
