About
Farm Day is a Waldorf-inspired summer program where children take part in hands-on farm activities such as harvesting, planting, weeding, and collecting chicken eggs. Each morning includes a balance of play, art, and real work on a real, working farm that uses exclusively organic practices to grow fruits, vegetables, flowers, and herbs.
• Ages: 3–9 years old
• Schedule: Jun 29 to Aug 28, 9am to 1pm
Farm Day is led by a team that includes Director Maggie Touchette; Lead Teacher (3–4s program) Holly Maran; Art Teacher Andi Pisacano; Farm Teacher Matthew Ross; and Lead Teacher (5–9s program) Cholena Smith-Boyd. Maggie has a Masters of Education from Fordham University and a Waldorf Teaching Certificate from the Sunbridge Institute, Holly received a LifeWays Waldorf certification in 2012, and Andi has a BFA in Fine Arts from the Museum School in Boston and a Masters in Elementary Education. Farm Day is a continuation of a program whose origin dates back to 2008, with Harbor Waldorf School operating in Sag Harbor from 2009 until its closing in 2023, and the summer camp settling at Fireplace Farm in 2015 before continuing under the new name Farm Day with its first season as a new organization in 2024. The program continued at Fireplace Farm through the support of the farm’s owners Maxwell and Oliver Ryan and farmer Paul Hamilton.
