Connecting the Community to our Farm

Farmer's Helpers offers farm-based education classes and events at Chip-In Farm in Bedford, Massachusetts. We aim to connect our community to the farm through classes, events, farm visits, and traveling petting zoos. Spending time on a working farm gives us a deeper connection to our food and offers an opportunity to spend more time outside, plus there's so mu

ch fun to be had on the farm! Our primary focus is on classes and events for children - in a time when our kids have less and less access to the outdoors (and especially to farms), Farmer's Helpers classes give kids the ​opportunity to develop skills through hands-on activities, real farm work, and outdoor play. Chip-In Farm was named in 1944 when members of the Couvee family “chipped in” to purchase a small farm in Bedford. A visit to the farm today brings you back to a simpler time when food was local and farms were family run. The Farmer's Helpers program offers an authentic, process-based, and hands-on farm experience for the next generation. Through Farmer's Helpers participants of all ages are given the chance to develop confidence, build community, and learn to become better stewards of their land and environment.
