ALBION — Hart-to-Hart Farm & Education Center will host its first ShineOnCass Easter Egg Hunt, free to the community from 2 to 4 p.m, Sunday, April 9, at 16 Duck Pond Lane.
Cassidy Charette, an Oakland teen who died in a hayride accident in 2014, was a long-time summer camper at the family owned and operated organic dairy farm, which offers a variety of educational programs for children, adults and families. In 2015, farm owners Linda and Doug Hartpkof and the community helped build Cassidy’s Kitchen — an outdoor, three-season kitchen for educational programs, in honor of Cassidy.
Children are asked to bring their own basket to collect hidden eggs on the farm during the Easter egg hunt. The event includes special treats and prizes, an animal petting area, face painting, spring crafts, games and a photo opportunity with the Easter Bunny. Families are also asked to bring a pet item that will be donated in Cassidy’s memory to the Waterville Area Humane Society, where she was a volunteer. The Humane society has a wish list that includes most-needed items including wood pellets for cat/kitty litter, dye free at foods (such as Purina Naturals) and canned food for kittens and cats (paté style, no fish please).
ShineOnCass Egg Hunt is sponsored by Hart-to-Hart Farm, Organic Valley, Children’s Book Cellar, Ingraham Equipment and the ShineOnCass Foundation. For more information, call 437-2441, email info@hart2hartfarm.org or visit www.hart2hartfarm.org.
