Warm Wisdom AT HOME Incubation & Embryology Educational Program


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 08/07/2021
Learn how to incubate and hatch chicks AT YOUR HOME: we will provide all equipment, fertile eggs, educational materials and individualized coaching for a stress-free, magical experience!! This is a seasonal, fully-supported program, by which families or groups (seniors/clubs) sign up to incubate and raise chicks for the first weeks of their lives (longer if the participant is up for it!) Keep your peeps or we will bring them back to our farm in Vermont - no long-term commitment!! Join us!

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

 

Seems like such a simple thing… not much to it… but the benefits of allowing a child – especially in urban/suburban areas – to experience the fascination of accompanying the development of an egg into a small chicken (and possibly beyond!) can be astonishing and are impossible to measure. We believe such experiences foster a deep respect and gratitude towards Nature, animals, and our “daily food”.

With active engagement and appropriate support from mentoring adults, this program also has the potential to open a child’s mind to the wide array of lifestyle choices available to her future, providing the structure and environment for the introduction of thoughts and concepts on ethical farming and its challenges, personal dietary preferences, business & career considerations, and more!

We provide all the support, materials, and guidance you will need to take on the incredible journey of incubating eggs and caring for the newborn chicks!!  (And we give the young chickens a home should that be your preference, or you may also keep them if you so wish!)

We carefully select our materials for an overall great experience for beginner families: we focus on quality, engagement, and ease of use!

We run several family program sessions per year, many dates available from Spring to Fall!

We offer this program to families, but also to daycare centers, pre-schools, grade schools, homeschooling & 4-H groups, senior residences & day centers, and other interested community and educational organizations throughout the academic year! Contact us to schedule your family/group!

We have limited sign up/participation space as we have to be conscious of the volume of chicks/chickens needing a home at the end of the programs – we always commit to taking back all of our chicks!
