The Classroom
Step into what used to be a dairy barn! What once held over 60 purebred Guernsey cows was transformed into 2 large classrooms, a lobby, a restroom area, and office space to bring more agriculture education to the Greater Hartford Community.
When not used for educational field trips, Auerfarm offers the space for families to hold birthday parties and create lasting memories while learning on the farm.
The classroom rental includes access to ONE of two identical classrooms and the restrooms in the lobby.
