Hart Family Farm
A lush property cradled by the St Vrain river at the end of Apple Valley Road in Lyons. There is a play gym, wild land to explore, lots of enclosures and fields where the sheep, horses, ducks, bunny, cats & dogs roam, and many interesting nooks and crannies for inquisitive, creative adventurers to explore and create in.

The program will incorporate a wide range of theater skills, including acting, singing, dancing, prop- and costume-making and set-building, stage performance, and more!
It will culminate in an end-of-summer performance and community celebration on Hart Farm.
