Visit Grace Farms in New Canaan, Connecticut

Nature, architecture, and art join forces in this season one segment from “Weekends with Yankee” (episode 110), as Richard and his family travel to Grace Farms in New Canaan, Connecticut. On display are the property’s five core initiatives: nature, art, justice, community, and faith. Grace Farms Nature Initiative Director Mark Fowler strives to get families back into nature, and details the benefits of being outdoors while giving Richard and his family a lesson on hawks, falcons, and owls.
