Homeschool families

Weekly class options 

Our schedule is designed for weekly classes that support the unique and diverse learning needs of  homeschool families. We offer morning, mid day, afternoon and full day classes in 4 distinct sessions. 

• Half-day classes offer focused, efficient sessions that allow students to engage with core concepts in a shorter, more structured time frame. This option is ideal for families seeking a balanced approach to learning with ample time for other activities. 
• Full-day classes provide an opportunity for students to take a deeper dive into their learning experience.  Students engage in the same curriculum as our half day classes while exploring key concepts in greater depth while fostering strong connections with their peers and nature.

Observational Learning

Our session-long offerings provide students with the opportunity to experience the ranch through the seasons and observe the changes in our landscape, wildlife, and farm animals. 

Creative Expression

Through crafting with nature’s materials, practicing bird calls, or engaging in imaginative storytelling, students develop independence and creativity with a deep appreciation for the natural world. 

Hands-on Skills

Students strengthen their problem-solving abilities, develop fine motor skills, and discover the joy of learning by doing. Students develop practical hands-on skills such as pottery, archery, woodshop, cooking, and naturalist skills like animal tracking and plant identification. 

Building Connections

We create a safe, empowering environment where children can be their authentic selves and grow socially and emotionally. Through team-building activities, farm animal interactions, and group play, students develop care, collaboration, and a strong sense of community with their peers.

Exploratory play

Student-driven free play sparks creativity, promotes physical health, and deepens a child’s connection to their sense of self and nature. Our curriculum blends structured activities, like naturalist skills, hiking, and shelter building, with opportunities for self-directed and peer play, helping children socialize, feel safe, and express their uniqueness.
