About our Program

We are beyond thrilled to be rolling into 4th year of Spring Programs! We have new materials coming to our After School & Home-school Enrichment Programs this year, which the children will love! There will be a lot more education about the animals that we have here at our small Care Farm as well as more hands on coaching activities!

We also incorporate positive themes for every month and Fall brings about some of my very favorite lessons!

We will be talking about Autumn Equinox, the changes that occur on every farm and farm animals during the changing seasons, the physical and mental changes, and so much more.

We ALWAYS talk about the following items every month, as every day there are new opprtunities to teach the following!

Gratitude
Kindness
Goal Setting
Overcoming Obstacles
Attitude
Random Acts of Kindness
Affirmations
and so much MORE!

It is all based on teaching our kids how to care for the animals, themselves, learn patience, trust, confidence, manners, kindness, responsibility, how to overcome obstacles, and ALL of the above!

We started our After School Farm “Fun” Program in 2019 and courses have been filling up so quickly over this last 3 years! So this year, I will put up the schedule from September through December, so that you all can reserve your spots for these upcoming months now!

WE HAVE VERY LIMITED SPACES SO MAKE SURE TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT TODAY!

What is This Program About

This is a very hands on program and was designed for children of all ages to work together in completing every day tasks on the farm, all while teaching them very important life skills!

It is a great way for children and adolescents to learn how to interact with one another, the animals, care for themselves and the animals, have discipline, kindness, respect, build trust, independence, relationships, patience, while empowering your child to find and nurture their passions, all through laughter, fun, farm animals, and the beauty of the outdoors.

All projects will be done outside in the pasture, while learning about how to properly interact with, take care of, exercise, groom, and love our ducks, chickens, dogs, rabbits, cats, ponies, miniature donkeys, a steer, horses, miniature sheep and YES our newest addition Stella the beautiful wooley donkey!

We create a very safe place for children to work the earth and animals with their hand while healing the mind and body through agricultural and animal based activities.

Every lesson that we have at The Giggling Life Care Farm includes lessons of gratitude, how to believe in yourself, and how powerful your mind is.

The kids absolutely love the this responsibility and this is where life gets pretty awesome! They begin to build confidence, trust, love, build relationships, respect and all of the aspects above. It is truly the most rewarding and therapeutic process that I know of.
