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.
Tier A: Above the standard cost to help make tiered pricing possible
Tier B: The standard cost (what we normally charge for each participant)
Tier C: Below the standard cost
If you are able, please consider selecting Tier A. Families that register at this level help support other children’s participation in our programs.
Friends of Holly Hill Farm established the Frank H. White Scholarship Fund in loving memory of the organization's co-founder. The FHWS Fund was created to provide opportunities for children of all financial backgrounds with access nature and farm based education.
