Farm School
2025 Update:
Due to various new adventures on and off the farm, we have decided to take a break from FarmSchool for the 2025 session. We will hopefully be able to share some new on-farm experiences that will be available soon.
Elementary through High School Science course based on National Ag in the Classroom Curriculum and various Ag programs
- Kindergarten through 2nd grade – The Explorers
- They will meet on Monday from 9:00a-10:00a. Their lessons will be age-appropriate science activities to engage their young brains.
- 3rd grade – 5th grade– The Zoologists
- They will meet on Monday from 10:30a-12:00p. These lessons are a little more challenging to encourage thought, and we will explore various agriculture themes based on animal studies.
- 6th grade-12th grade- The Biologists
- Mondays 12:30-2:30
- These lessons are more STEM focused and will involve group projects as well as individual experiments. Their studies will be based on Biology and environmental studies.

**Please note that some changes have been made to the age/grades since last year. If you are a returning student, and would like to be placed in the same class as the prior semester, please contact me.**
Fall is just around the corner, and this FarmSchool will be packed with fun, and innovative lessons to engage your child in learning about agriculture.
K-2nd- Our youngest students will be exploring different areas around the farm and woods. They will be discovering the world around them and how to treat it with care. This class will be full of crafts, and activities to engage their young brains.
3rd-5th: This semester will be focusing on Zoology. We will be learning about all the animals around our farm as well as other homesteads. Students will be learning the important roles each animal plays in maintaining a sustainable ag environment.
6th-12th: Our Middle/High School class will be focusing on Biology and Environmental Science.

A little about the teacher
Hi, I am Jessica! I have been a homeschool mom for 8 years to my three children (13, 12 and 10 years old). I grew up working on a farm but transitioned into healthcare as an adult. After my children were born, I always made it a priority to get them out in nature for hands on learning experiences. Seven years ago, my family and I moved to our homestead in Johnston County. We have learned so much more through gardening, composting, raising livestock and bees. We are also active in our local 4H community.
I am excited to be able to offer your children some ag-based learning opportunities and can’t wait to see everyone this fall!
