Farmstead Nature Play Days

An Appalachian Inspired Homeschool Enrichment

Growing up as a young child in the Appalachian mountains, I have a deep connection with the nature God created. I want to share all of the wonders of His creation with children and families. This includes sharing how to be good stewards of the land, respect plants and animals, and observe seasonal changes. I also enjoy passing along old timey hand-me-down lessons to the next generations. Some of this may look like sharing:

  • The practical skills of planting seeds and growing a garden so they know how to have their own food and where it comes from.
  • The raising of animals from babies, in a healthy manner, so that they are calm and provide good food.
  • Showing that being in the sunshine and fresh air with free range play is healthy for our bodies, minds, and spirits.

Sharing these things and building authentic community in a Christ-focused environment are why I created our farmstead nature program. This allows children to experience nature and be encouraged to explore freely outside. Children are naturally curious and having wide open spaces allows them to be creative, have wonder, and explore abundantly.

In times of families that live far away, disconnectedness, and busyness, I felt a pull to gather others around. This community builds friendships, supports one another, offers encouragement through the Lord and His plans, and provides life skills all at the same time.

“Thanks to farm school, my 4 year old has a renewed love for the outdoors. He loves the opportunity to explore all that nature has to offer & he has enjoyed making new friends. Creek play, mud, and feeding animals have been some of his favorites. As a mom, I’ve learned so much right alongside of him. This has been such a blessing to our family.”
