A hands-on (hands-dirty!) educational camp at Indian Ladder Farms, Altamont, NY


Take a glimpse at The Barn School an award-winning series of camps that Mary started with Laurie Ten Eyck of Indian Ladder Farms. This program immersed kids into the world of sustainable agriculture while raising funds for Heifer International. (Their parents had a hard time leaving, and always arrived early, wanting to get in on the lessons and activities. “When are you going to have one for us?” they asked.) Combining local experts from the agricultural community like a sheep shearer, a wool spinner, a bee keeper, etc., along with original materials and supplements from Heifer International, we were able to create a vast world of learning and awareness, all while having a barn-shaking good time!


Ready for work!


Cows, goats, pigs...need breakfast, too!


Dr. Roger Ellis, NYS veterinarian and Heifer International Board Member, describes animal care in foreign countries where Heifer works with families.


Goat hugging--tough job but somebody’s gotta do it.

Available soon! An English/Spanish book for children and adults with photos and details of the program. (All proceeds will benefit Indian Ladder Farms and Heifer International.) If you’d like to be on the waiting list write mary@maryjuddcommunications.com
