We were voted Best of the South Shore 2023 for our Summer Programs!
In a time where the natural world - and its changing climate - is of increasing importance, we know the education we are offering is especially critical.
Whether we're on the farm, or bringing our educational programming on the road to local schools, we are passionate about educating the next generation.
Learn about our on the farm programming for children ages 3-12, opportunities for teens to make an impact now, school and organization field trips, school curriculum, school gardens, and more!
As part of Friends of Holly Hill Farm's goal to become a more diverse, equitable and inclusive organization, we have instituted tiered pricing for youth educational programming. This allows families to choose the price that works best for them, reducing the cost-barrier to our programs.

Field Trips & School Partnerships
Did you know we partner with nearly 40 schools in the South Shore and Greater Boston area?
Our farm-based curriculum guides and Massachusetts Department of Education-approved teacher training give teachers the tools they need to think outside of the classroom. With expert guidance, we help schools to plan field trips and to execute educational gardens for outdoor learning.
Teens making an impact
Teen Volunteer Opportunities
Be part of the positive impact we're making on the environment and in our local community! We have two (2) unique programs that allow teens to fulfill their required community service and for those who just want to volunteer to learn and make a difference today!
Opportunities offered year-round!
Did you know that our farming and education programs only cover 65% of the costs to operate Friends of Holly Hill Farm? The rest comes from community supporters like you!
