About this event

  • 2 hours 30 minutes

Families with young children are invited to honor our mothers and Mother Earth with a morning on the farm. We’ll share in song, story, and the joys of planting in the spring. Some of what is planted will be donated to the local food pantry.

When: Sunday, May 12, 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
Where: Living Tree Alliance, under the tent in the field, park at 96 Living Tree Lane
Who: Young children (1–7 years old) and their families; older siblings welcome

We’ll start the morning with song and movement under the tent with Miss Andrea from Musical Munchkins.

Then, we’ll have fun on the farm:

  • Decorating and planting flowerpots to give to moms and grandmothers
  • Planting veggies in the garden that will be harvested later for the food shelf
  • Visiting farm animals

While children are enjoying the farm with LTA’s farm educators, parents are invited for a discussion about bringing meaningful ritual into your child’s life with educator Melanie Grubman.

Organized by

Living Tree Alliance is a kibbutz-inspired community reimagined for the modern world. We provide outdoor enthusiasts, spiritual seekers, Jews, interfaith families, and people of all faiths with an authentic nature-based life experience where we can connect through homesteading, camping, celebrations, festivals, education, and enrichment programs. Our property in Vermont’s Mad River Valley spans 92 acres and includes seven private housing lots, an active farming co-op, woodland trails, scenic swimming holes, campgrounds, and is adjacent to local public schools and three legendary ski resorts.

Our festivals are grounded in nature and adhere to our seven principles: 

  1. Regenerative Resiliency
  2. Service  We practice tzedakah (charity) and gemilut chassidim (acts of loving kindness) in work, hospitality, and economic justice.
  3. Social Justice  We are informed by Jewish ethics and are committed to education, civic engagement and nonviolent communication.
  4. Inner Work - We bring mindfulness, compassion, and understanding to the cultivation of emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual well being.
  5. Joy, Gratitude, and Celebration  We keep time to appreciate life each day, refrain from work on Shabbat and celebrate life cycle events with joy.
  6. Commitment We take time to connect with each other, the land and the surrounding community.
  7. Ein Sof We maintain an open space for the continued possibilities of what was, is and will be.
