Farm Kids Mini Farmers – Lady Bugs

February 25, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

$130
Farm Kids Lady Bugs Workshop

Farm Kids Mini Farmers – Lady Bugs Workshop
@ The Farm Byron Bay

We go on a lady bug hunt in the farm gardens. We investigate what it is they are eating and we find out many fun and amazing facts about lady bugs. We will discuss natural ways to fertilise and spray the bad bugs that will not kill lady bugs. Paint a pot to look like a ladybug and plant a seedling that attracts ladybugs. Make a large ladybug pot for the Farm Kids garden plot and plant ladybug attracting plants in it.

The kids become mini farmers and after a detailed tour get set to work doing farm chores. We collect eggs, restock our pet chickens bedding, ensure they have fresh water and clean out the coup. We work on our dedicated Farm Kids garden plot and tend to our onsite worm Subpod. If the opportunity arises, we assist the farmers with their chores. They forage, cook, make natural products, create and see where their food comes from as well as experience countless opportunities to learn about teamwork, community, and ethical farming practices.
