Kids are natural explorers, builders, and creators—so let’s give them a space where they can dig in, climb, plant, and discover! 

 

Dragonfly Explorers is our hands-on eco-learning club, designed to spark curiosity and deepen kids’ connection with nature.

Through guided activities in the garden, orchard, and wild spaces of the farm, kids will get to plant, build, move, and play—learning about ecosystems, sustainability, and the magic of the natural world along the way. Whether they’re feeding chickens, identifying wildlife, or harvesting food they helped grow, they’ll gain skills, confidence, and a lifelong appreciation for the outdoors.

This is more than just a class—it’s a chance for kids to engage their senses, explore freely, and build a lasting relationship with nature. Let them run on the nature trail, get their hands in the soil, and experience the joy of outdoor learning.

Ready to let your child’s curiosity take flight? Sign them up for Dragonfly Explorers today!
