Company description
Red Gate Farm grow confident, hardworking, fun-loving, and healthy kids by connecting them to the land and farming. With a half acre garden, farm animals, and a large sugarbush we help kids get directly involved in the food system. We have seen again and again the personal growth and joy that comes from harvesting a crate of carrots, collecting eggs, washing greens, and seeing a meal served to your friends and teachers full of goodies you helped gather, clean, chop, and cook. It is a truly transformative experience and one we are so proud to participate in.
