The Farm School is a magical place, there is no one certain thing that captures the heart, it is personal and the opportunities are great. The magic may be found in the open space, fresh air, starry night skies, loving animals, time with a book at the base of an apple tree, times of laughter and play running freely, the fulfillment of finishing that building project or that final stroke upon the fiery iron at the forge, a place to be captivated by the forest, sounds of streams and creeks, a place to lay down, be held by earth and let go. Whatever it is, we plan to keep your kids safe as they explore and find that magic at a moment when it is so needed.

Thank you for joining us on the farm again, we look forward to seeing you and the youth soon.

Session 6: base rate $2,450 or full $3,200

Limited financial aid is available and can be requested during the registration process.

Understanding the Base and Full Rates:

Our base rate is the minimum rate for those who can pay at that level, the full rate is closer to the true cost of running the program and is for those with the means to pay closer to the truer cost of the program. If someone is unable to pay the base rate, we also have a limited amount of financial aid available that can be requested during the application process. If someone has the means to pay the full rate we ask that you do so and support us in our efforts of offering superb programming for your kids while also meeting our commitment of paying our Farmer Teachers a living wage.

Refund Policy:

If you cancel, deposits/payments, minus a $50 fee, are refunded ONLY IF we are able to fill your withdrawn spot. IF The Farm School has to cancel overnight programming, payments/deposits will be refunded. There is a $50 fee for returned checks.
