Preschoolers, their teachers and parent volunteers are welcomed to join us for monthly guided field trips of Veronda-Falletti Ranch. Special chicken-keeping and farm & garden activities provide our young learners something new to look forward to at every visit. Follow-up curriculum is shared with teachers so that the children’s experiences at the Ranch are easily integrated into the classroom.

Please reach out to us if your early childhood classroom community would like to participate in this program!

Open to children ages 4 to 12 years old, our Montessori-inspired farm & nature camps integrate learning with the freedom, warmth and fun that summer brings. Join us for these exciting adventures! To register, follow the link and filter location by “Veronda-Falletti Ranch”.

+ Camps run in June & July from Monday to Thursday, 8:30am-2pm.
+ Camps will have two cohorts to enable age-appropriate activities: caterpillars (the younger cohort) and butterflies (the older cohort).
+ Each of our camps will include different activities so that children who attend multiple camp weeks will enjoy varied experiences.
+ Feed and learn about our farm animals, engage in hands-on learning, art, crafts and games and make new friends.  
+ Camp days will end with yoga and other calming activities.
+ We will end each four-day session with an art-viewing party and farmer's market.
+ We VERY STRONGLY suggest that 4 and 5 year old children are enrolled for a minimum of 2 weeks so that we can establish healthy routines and individualized care for our youngest campers.
+ All children must be toilet trained.
+ We will also host orientation visits for 4 and 5 year old children prior to camp, accompanied by a guardian, so they can connect with our team and check out their very exciting farm summer camp environment. We will also discuss your child's development with you so we are prepared to support our littlest campers.

Our early release enrichment program for elementary school-aged children provides farm, nature and art- based experiences during local schools’ early release hours. Engaging activities and projects are introduced continuously, following themes that are inspired by the children’s and teacher’s interests. Homework support and a snack is provided.

We are committed to keeping this program accessible to families by offering a flexible $25 to $45 fee for each day of attendance. Please pay as much as you can afford so we can continue to offer this wonderful program.

Families must complete pre-enrollment paperwork before students can attend this program (this is a one-time requirement). After this paperwork is completed, families can sign up to attend for one day or all days provided we have availability. You may sign up for sessions before completing the paperwork; we will contact you with a pre-enrollment packet which must be completed before the first day of attendance.

Transportation must be arranged by family. A parent or caregiver may choose to remain on campus while their child participates in the program, and can make use of our WiFi, and comfortable work and garden spaces.
