Homesteading for Kids

Learn by doing. Join us for a hands on experience at Breadbox Farm.

Breadbox kids classes are lead by Savannah Shoemake. All classes are very active as the kids will be helping in the rabbit room, experimenting and exploring in the gardens, and doing arts and crafts throughout their time with us.

Class Offerings

Date Night Bunny Club

Saturday’s from 5 pm - 8 pm

Have an evening out while your kiddos hang with Savannah and the bunnies. Bunny Club has a focus on teaching empathy, communication, and sustainability through hands on experiences. The kids can expect to help feed in the rabbit room, clean up something messy, get their hands in the dirt, cuddle some bunnies, discover outdoor critters, or spend time on a science or craft project each session. There will be plenty of time for curiosity led learning and socializing with each other!

  • 3 hour class on Saturday evenings (date night anyone?)

  • For kids ages 6-9 years old

  • A great class for kids who want to learn more about animals and science, who thrive with hands-on learning, and who enjoy working as part of a team.
