The Farm

Bay Farm agriculture program

Real animals, real responsibility.

Our integrated agriculture program, taught by 2025's Agricultural Teacher of the Year, Evelyn Golden, brings learning outside the classroom walls. Children tend vegetable beds, harvest apples from our orchard, collect eggs from the henhouse, and care for our goats and alpaca. They learn resilience, responsibility, patience, and develop wonder and respect for the natural world.

It's biology you can hold in your hands. It's math, counting seeds and measuring growth. It's science, tracking seasons and life cycles. It's community, learning the value of caring for something other than yourself.

Around the Farm

Bay Farm goats

Three Nigerian dwarf goats, Alfie, Scruffy, and Dwight, are part of daily campus life.

Bay Farm alpaca

Our Alpaca

Harmony the alpaca is a gentle, curious friend students always look forward to visiting.

Bay Farm hens

Our Hens

A flock of egg-laying hens gives students hands-on responsibility, from daily care to egg collection.

Bay Farm gardens and orchard

Our Gardens & Orchard

Raised garden beds and a small apple orchard give students the chance to plant, tend, and harvest throughout the year.

Growing Alongside Nature

Bay Farm students interact with nature at every developmental level, growing in step with the animals and gardens they help tend.

Bay Farm's 4-H Club lets students take their learning further, competing with the school's own chickens at local fairs.
