BIRTHDAY PARTIES & FACILITIES RENTALS 

 

Birthday Parties 

Common Ground offers educational, environmentally themed birthday parties for all ages.  Choose from a variety of activities led by Common Ground staff.  Options include a tour of the farm and gardens (meeting all the animals and tasting herbs and vegetables in the gardens), a treasure hunt around the farm or in the woods, working with wool and making yarn, or a guided hike or nature walk.  Call to discuss idea and combinations of activities.  In addition, families are welcome to bring their own games, crafts, or other activities. 

 

To help you plan your party, consider the following details:

  • Parties may be requested for weekday evenings or anytime on weekends.

  • Parties are typically scheduled for three hours, including ½ hour of set-up time, 2 hours for the party, and ½ hour for clean-up. 

  • Families may bring their own food and decorations if desired.  Refrigerator and freezer space is available.  

    The fee for a party is $225 for up to 30 people (including guests, parents, siblings, etc.).  Larger parties, longer programs, and additional activities are available for an additional fee.

To schedule a party, call Rebecca Holcombe at 203.389.4333 x213, or email rholcombe@nhep.com to schedule your party at Common Ground.
