About this Event

This is our second fall session for our inculsive neurodiverse farmer program. This session starts up on Saturday 10/18 , 10/25, 11/8 and 11/15.

Designed for farm hands of all abilities, this unique program offers a hands-on, sensory-rich experience that encourages exploration, creativity, and learning in a natural setting. Our farm provides a safe and welcoming environment where kids can connect with animals, engage in gardening activities, and explore the outdoors at their own pace. Leann and Alex are trained to support neurodiverse learners, ensuring that each child’s individual needs are met. Activities are tailored to accommodate various sensory, social, and communication styles, fostering a sense of belonging and self-confidence. Whether your child enjoys feeding animals, planting seeds, or simply observing the wonders of nature, they’ll find a space where they can thrive. This program promotes social interaction, emotional regulation, and physical activity, all while nurturing a love for nature. Join us on the farm for a fun, inclusive, and enriching experience that celebrates every child's unique abilities! This is NOT a drop off class, your farmer will need an adult buddy (18+) accompanying them to this class. It can be a parent, paraprofessional, babysitter, grandparent or someone else who knows your farmer well that can help support them on the farm while our staff leads both of you and the rest of the class through the farm! This program will run rain or shine. Please reach out with any questions about this or anything else regarding this program.
