Education Beyond the Classroom in Lower Silesia – Marianówek Educational Farm
Location and Getting There
The Marianówek Educational Farm is located in the picturesque village of Dobrocin, in the Dzierżoniów district, just 50 km from Wrocław. It is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and spend time in peace, quiet, and the natural rural surroundings of Lower Silesia.
Visitors reach the farm independently, allowing full flexibility in planning their trip. Once there, children and their caregivers can enjoy a safe environment, fresh air, and close contact with nature – ideal for learning through play and hands-on experiences in the countryside.
Offer and Attractions
The Marianówek Educational Farm is a place where learning meets fun and practical experience. Children have the chance to interact directly with animals – from horses and ponies to cattle, sheep, goats, rabbits, and domestic birds. It is a unique opportunity for young explorers to learn about animal life up close and see what daily life on a farm is like.
The farm’s program also includes a variety of educational workshops, such as “The Village Then and Now,” “From Grain to Loaf,” as well as culinary, adventure, and outdoor activities. Children learn by doing – milking cows, making butter, baking their own bread, and participating in field games and educational tasks.
Additionally, thematic excursions are available, such as “Mother’s Day,” tastings of products made during workshops, or joint butter-making and bread-baking sessions. All activities are interactive, allowing children not only to gain knowledge but also to develop creativity, independence, and teamwork skills.
Benefits for Children
A trip to the Marianówek Educational Farm is not only great fun but also a valuable learning experience. Children expand their understanding of rural life, animal habits, and the origins of basic agricultural products such as milk, eggs, and bread.
Practical activities, culinary workshops, and handicrafts support the development of creativity and manual skills, while also teaching patience and precision.
Direct contact with nature, fresh air, and daily life on the farm promotes a healthy lifestyle and fosters respect for the environment and ecological awareness. It is a comprehensive educational experience that combines learning, play, and personal growth.
