Berkshire Farm Stay with Adamah
June 18 – 22, 2012
July 23 – 27, 2012
August 20 – 24, 2012
As many of us look to source our food from local farmers' markets, grow vegetables in our own backyards, and make our meals from scratch, we are delighted to offer you an immersive experience in the farmer's life. The Adamah Farm is far from the fast-paced world, and just a few hours from your home.
Enjoy an array of activities in a beautiful setting and three delicious kosher farm-to-table meals each day. Join goats, chickens, farmers, and friends for a firsthand experience of life on the farm. Help us take care of our family of over 30 adorable goats and a flock of friendly chickens. Pick cucumbers and make your own pickles. Gather fresh herbs, harvest tomatoes, make goat cheese, and then cook your own pizza in our wood-fired outdoor oven. Help design a featured dish with the vegetables that are in season during your visit. Help milk the goats, collect eggs, and learn about the magic of composting. Explore the Jewish environmental movement, New England permaculture principles, and the new Jewish food ethic.
Start each day with a hearty farmer's breakfast and a morning of work in the fields, the barnyard, or the kitchen. Spend the afternoon strolling our edible forest garden, boating, swimming, hiking, reading, relaxing, or going on a guided trip to one of the Berkshires' many local cultural and natural attractions. After dinner, watch a film about food and farming, join a campfire singalong, or simply stargaze by the lake.
Please note that the majority of our activities are family-friendly and appropriate for ages 5 and up. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. Hourly childcare is available by request for an additional fee.
