Reimagining what school looks like.

creative and compassionate children.

At Farm School, food isn't just a second thought. It nourishes our bodies and minds, connects us as a community, and teaches us so much about the natural world. Here's some of our rituals and rhythms around food;

- We eat 3x per day (this is a hungry crew of kiddos, burning lots of energy!) all together as a community
- Every meal is scratch cooked using whole ingredients, sourced locally when possible
- Our Discoverers class helps cook and serve lunch every day
- We use real dishes and cloth napkins; kids are responsible for clearing and helping wash dishes
- We feed our food scraps to our chickens, never into the trash bin! Every week, a student rotates who's on "compost" duty
- Our lunches always include a main meat protein, a vegan protein, a carb, and two sources of veggies

Curiosity, creativity, and community are at the heart of everything we do. We work to educate the whole child, not just the academic mind.

Here's some things you might not know about Farm School!

- We begin our school year the day after Labor Day (whew!). Our farm school day starts at 8:30 AM and ends at 3:30 PM, with plenty of time for hands-on learning and outdoor time.
- We keep our group size small to ensure personalized attention and a supportive learning environment.
- We believe in the power of play as a learning tool. Our students engage in child-led playtime, fostering creativity and problem-solving skills.
- Students spend 65% of their day outdoors, exploring the farm, gardens, and surrounding nature, developing a deep connection with the environment. Dress accordingly!
- The students help prepare scratch-cooked meals daily using whole, organic ingredients sourced locally whenever possible

Our farm is more than just a classroom—it's a place where children grow alongside the plants and animals they care for. There’s something magical about Farm School.
