Children's Farm Project

Inurban mega cities such as Moscow, children rarely have the chance to see therural life, and can only learn so much in the class room.Our Goalsare to provide children a wonderful place to learn about farmingand farm animals and give children that real hands onfarming experience while maintaining safety procedures.
Heretheyget to scratch, feel, see, smell andhear all the experiences of life on a farm.Theyget an understanding from where the foodthey eat comesfrom and how is it grown and nurtured.
Besidesbeing a farm for fun and education for children, this farm will actually runand operate as a self sufficient farm, and use its produce to sustain itselfand grow further and provide jobs to people of all ages.
Thefarm will use modern state-of-the art farming technologies, and be an exemplaryfarm that others could adopt and will have all features that are necessary fora smooth and safe running of the farm.
Thefarm will use energy saving technology using wind, water and solar power forinnovatively running different objects.
Thisproject will be perceived as being socially beneficial to the country.
Layoutwill be different depending upon the site but should have an easy flow path andaccess to all amenities.
Pathshould be built for walks, cycling and tractors.
Handwash and WCs to be located conveniently along the path near each object...
