From November to April, once a month on Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., a park ranger will read a story aloud in a cozy historic barn, followed by a related activity exploring the farm's landscape. Story topics will focus on the main themes of Weir Farm National Historic Site so the kids can have fun and learn a lot! The Reading Ranger program is for children in grades K-4, and all children must have a parent/guardian with them for the duration of the program. The program is free, however, registration is required - call 203-834-1896 ext.12.
The dates and topics are as follows. Sign up for one, or many!
- Saturday, November 14: Mr. Weir, Inspired!

- Saturday, January 9: What's to be Found on the Farm?
- Saturday, February 20: Stone Wall Wonders
