Day Services

Day Services

Farmsteads' day services include both vocational and recreational activities, that take place naturally on and around a farm as well as in the greater community. Day services are based both at Rosewald Farm in Hillsborough, NH and at Redberry Farm in Epping, NH. People participating in FNE’s community are encouraged to explore all of the possible activities. Their individual schedule of activities is determined based on their interests and abilities. Farmsteads’ day services are certified by the state of New Hampshire for adults who have developmental disabilities and acquired brain disorders.
