Experience Nature (45mins)
Once we’ve explored, settled into the farm and connected by getting to know eachother, we will have a Nature activity/activities to do from mud pies (come in clothes to get messy!), to experiencing what might live in the pond, to many various nature activities led by your facilitator!

A gently guided outdoor experience that nurtures curiosity, empathy, & learning beyond the classroom through real connection with animals & nature.
These guided educational visits offer children and families a chance to explore nature through playful, hands-on activities such as pond life discovery and mud creations. The journey finishes with a special time meeting the cows—feeding them, learning their names, and deepening friendships with the farm’s residents.
When children form empathetic connections with nature and animals, those early impressions become meaningful memories that influence how they see and care for the world.
Our guided programs weave together exploration of land, water, plants, and animals, creating meaningful childhood impressions rooted in care, curiosity, and connection.
An age-appropriate exploration of trees, their parts, and the life they support.
Children explore the pond to observe insects, plants, and tiny creatures, learning how each plays a role in this living ecosystem.
Children explore soil through touch and play, learning how healthy soil helps plants grow and supports life beneath our feet.
Children explore what cows need to feel safe and happy, fostering empathy and appreciation for these gentle beings.
Gentle, unhurried time in the sanctuary lets students step beyond the classroom and meet nature through observation, care, and meaningful hands-on moments.
