Forte Farms Farm School
“I have never found anything like Forte Farms Farm School! Everyone involved has such an immense love for the students. As if the cost and experience weren’t enough, I feel like my child is gaining another family!”
-4th Year Farm School Family
Farm School is a one day a week home-based, nature play program. Our smaller group setting (no more than 13) gives our learners the ability to make one on one connections with kids of various ages. We incorporate hands on, play-focused learning in an environment you can’t get in a regular school setting. Our life learning and nature focused program is perfect for any and all ages and gives young children the chance to build relationships with others outside their own home but still in a home setting. And, not to mention, all the amazing experiences that come with being on a farm!
NEW: 2024-2025 School Year
For the 2024-2025 school year, we will be taking a break from our regular one day a week program. Families interested are welcome to reach out regarding information for future farm school years!

Farm School takes into consideration every young learner where they are. Our primary focus is to give children the chance to learn at their own pace, in their own time. Children are born with the natural desire to play & rarely need help to learn the things they are passionate about. Our goal is to provide an environment where they feel comfortable to do that! Nature exploration, imaginative play, student-guided learning, and relationship building pilot our program. Students learn in a way that is developmentally appropriate and, most importantly, enjoyable. Concepts are achieved through hands-on techniques and the daily routine includes various opportunities for each student to dive deeper into what they are most passionate about.
