Farm + Forest School is a nature, farm, and play-based agri-education program geared for kids ages 5-12 who are homeschooled, unschooled, or in other non-traditional school. It's the perfect opportunity to supplement your curriculum with weekly access to a working farm, acres of forest, and a variety of other natural resources!
During our weekly gatherings, our rhythms will incorporate topics such as botany, earth science, astronomy, and biology through story, arts/crafts, and exploration in the farm and forest. Each session will also focus on seasonal changes and lessons from nature.
Students will:
-
Learn to care for our chickens and goats
-
Learn to garden through the seasons by tending our Children's Garden
-
Learn about pollinators and other beneficial insects + birds
-
Spend time in our forest, meadow, streams, and gardens, which feature a variety of habitats rich with wildlife
-
Move their bodies and discover the joy of working with others on the farm
-
Play!
Supplies and snack are included, but students should bring their own lunch.
Our desire is for our kids programs to be accessible to all
