Agriculture Education
Farm programs
Through unique, immersive experiences, AgEd programs spark curiosity, foster compassion, and creates community between learner, animals, and our environment.
Youth and their families can meander through the Barn on Family Farmyards; Dive deeper into agriculture, engaging with the land during Farm Field Trips; learn responsibility and veterinary science by providing the care for our Farm Friends as an Animal Care Co-Op member. We also offer an Intro to Animal Care program, allowing our youngest learners (5-10yo) to become comfortable and familiar with the animals and their care.
Child Care
Your child will receive caring individualized attention from a team of dedicated staff members.
Garrett's Way
All children ages 6 weeks through Kindergarten are welcome in our Keystone Stars accredited child care program focused around the PA State Early Learning Standards.
Our curriculum is carefully designed to stimulate children’s natural curiosity and establish a lifelong love of learning in a safe, nurturing environment. Dedicated, highly trained teachers work to build crucial early skills and lay the foundation for success in first grade and beyond. Our educational philosophy is based on a place-based education model which means a “real world” curriculum. Place based education uses an immersive approach, connecting learners to their environments; in our case using the farm, garden, and woods to create authentic, meaningful, and engaging personalized learning for the students across all curriculum areas. Our students meet and exceed all the learning standards expected by the state of Pennsylvania, but we teach them in a less traditional, more hands-on way.
Our dedicated network of teachers, volunteers and staff members are passionate about investing in our community, making otherwise out of reach opportunities possible.
