One Acre Farm is more than just a farm—it's a sanctuary of learning, growth, and transformation. Here, children experience the joys and responsibilities of farm life, from planting gardens and watching the birth of goats to caring for livestock. This farm school offers unique, hands-on experiences that shape young minds and nurture their spirits.
Lindsay, a farm school parent, shares, "This is not an experience she could have anywhere else. My daughter is truly blessed to have experienced it." Destinee, another grateful parent, testifies, "One Acre Farm has had a profound impact on our lives. My son has grown in more ways than I can articulate."
The farm’s "yes" environment encourages children to explore, interact with animals, and engage in meaningful, age-appropriate tasks. Children come home excited educating their families on nature, animal kindness, and social interactions. The freedom to explore and learn at their own pace fosters confidence and independence in the children.
Catherine and Nicole, the visionary educators behind One Acre Farm, bring over 30 years of combined experience in both traditional and alternative educational settings. Catherine, with a background in public school teaching and homeschooling, and Nicole, a certified Montessori teacher and autism therapist, blend their expertise to create a supportive learning environment where each child is valued for their unique abilities and interests.
One Acre Farm's philosophy centers on outdoor education, providing a nurturing environment that encourages movement, connection with nature and animals, and child-led exploration. From Kids Art & Play to specialized autism therapy sessions, the farm offers diverse programs that cater to the needs of the community. Whether it's a monthly art and play session or a full-year learning pod, One Acre Farm is committed to fostering natural development in children, making it a beloved haven for families seeking an enriching, nature-based educational experience.
