Farm Enrichment Program

Our Farm Enrichment Program is meant to be coupled with homeschool or alternative learning. The program runs Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM, offering both early care and after-care hours.

This program offers students the opportunity to become hands-on farmers and mini home-stead makers. While the premise of our program is wild and free, we offer daily learning activities. Throughout the year, we will explore many activities that correlate with a daily lesson. The activities may be things like collecting fresh fruit and veggies to make jam or soup over the fire, harvesting edible plants like our native ancestors did, tracking wild animals & identifying their dens, caring daily for livestock and poultry, collecting fresh eggs from the coop and cooking them over the fire, maintaining land in sustainable ways, utilizing nature to create unique art, delving into handicrafts like whittling, sewing, cattle roping, crocheting, story writing, cooking, creating dyes, candle making, horse-back riding or whatever else a child might desire to learn. Each activity depends heavily on the season, age, and the interest of the child. We believe firmly in nurturing each child’s individual strengths and interests.
