Farm Preschool

Our Farm Preschool Program in Nokesville, Virginia is a half-day outdoor enrichment program for children ages 3 to 5 years. We offer preschool during the spring and fall months on Mondays and Thursdays from 10am - 1pm.

The program aims to balance dependable daily routines, group activities, and ample time for open-ended nature play and exploration.

Activities include:

  • Arts & Crafts

  • Garden Time

  • Dirt, Sand, & Water Play

  • Creativity Time

  • Story Time

  • Animal Care/Husbandry

  • Animal Feeding

  • Nature Exploration

  • Social Development

Parents MUST stay with their children. We maintain a 5:1 ratio for our preschool class and there must be at least 2 children to hold class. The tuition is $35 /day and we have room for 10 children!

Bring a water bottle and two changes of weather-appropriate clothing. For water play, please bring water shoes, NOT flip flops.
