Visiting Student Program: On-farm experiences for children and young adults. Each year, more than 600 children and young adults stay at Hawthorne Valley Farm's Main House. Some visit for 3 to 5 days with their school class and others for 1 to 3 weeks for summer camps. Students and teachers, campers and counselors, live, work, and learn together alongside our experienced farmers and farm educators. By living into the rhythms of the farm and of nature, the children establish deeper connections to the earth and to one another.

This yogurt is made in small batches on our farm with fresh, whole milk from our own herd and from select family farms in the area. We add no thickeners, solids, or fillers, and because the milk isn't homogenized there is a layer of delicious cream on top. Year round, we provide our cows with a natural, grass-based diet. During the growing season, the cows graze the pastures day and night, and in the winter they eat a mix of stored forages harvested from the farm. This careful management and tending, leads to happy cows, healthy soil, and delicious yogurt. We hope you enjoy it! Nurturing the land that nurtures us.
