Programs at the Farm
At Joppa Hill Educational Farm, our mission is to preserve a working farm that provides enriching educational experiences, fosters community connection, and cultivates a shared appreciation for New Hampshire’s agricultural heritage and natural environment. Through a variety of programs, we offer hands-on opportunities for people of all ages to engage with the land, animals, and sustainable farming practices. The Farm is a place where curiosity is nurtured, community is strengthened, and a love for nature and farming is cultivated.
Summer Camp
Our summer camp program offers children a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in farm life while getting outside and learning about animals and agriculture. Children learn about the animals on the farm with hands-on experiences like feeding, collecting eggs, and learning about sustainable farming practices. The camp provides a fun and educational environment where kids can connect with nature, develop new skills, and make lasting memories.
The Gardens
Our farm features a variety of gardens that foster both community engagement and environmental stewardship. We offer a community garden space where local members can grow their own produce, alongside a certified Native Plant & Pollinator Garden that promotes biodiversity and sustainability. Our high tunnel is used to cultivate flowers and fresh produce year-round, with all gardens managed by a dedicated team of UNH Extension Master Gardener Volunteers and community volunteers. These gardens are a place to connect with nature, learn, and grow together.
