About

An autumn workshop at Dottenfelderhof, a working farm on the Nidda in Bad Vilbel. The fodder beets for the farm's cows are just coming in from the field. Kids first see where they grew, then carve them into spooky or funny lanterns, the old German version of a jack-o'-lantern. It suits kids who like getting their hands dirty and can handle a carving tool with some help.

€5 per person
