It's maple sugaring season here at Sweet Wind Farm, and we invite all homeschoolers and families to attend our 2nd Annual Maple Festival on Saturday, March 8, from 10-4.

A fun and educational day out for everyone. Free admission. Sweet Wind Farm is located at 339 South Road, rte. 179, East Hartland, Ct.

Homeschoolers are also invited to schedule a private group class and tour anytime between now and the beginning of April to learn about maple sugaring. This class is a hands-on learning experience.
