Stroller Walks at Appleton Farms

Stroller Walks at Appleton Farms help families with toddlers to connect with nature in Ipswich Massachusetts!

To encourage time in nature, familiarity with the natural world, and a time for parents and children to get together outdoors, our popular infant/toddler stroller walks will return at Appleton Farms. These hour long walks will be on Tuesdays from 9-10am. Come to one or all of the sessions and explore the farmyard, fields, and forest, and imagine hidden worlds beneath our feet and above our heads. Children and their care-givers will have the opportunity to take in fresh air, be with other families, and walk diverse trails on the farm. This is a great time to socialize with other parents and get your kids in nature, unwind and relax at the farm!

This program is intended as a walk for parents with children in strollers and is dependent on nice weather. Please arrive with a trail-ready stroller or other carrying method.

This program will start at the Farm House. Please park in the Farm House parking lot.

Program Dates:

Every Tuesday 9-10 am April 4 – Sept. 26.

Recommended for ages 0-2; babes in backpacks are welcome.
