Our Mission

Heart of Joy Learning provides a rich, nurturing environment where children learn directly from hands-on participation in farm chores, forest exploration, and guided, semi-guided, and self-directed activities of their choice designed to pique curiosity, build upon knowledge, and inspire a love of freedom.

On the Farm

Farm Chores & Chickens

Children perform essential chores on the farm as a team and in pairs, practicing cooperation & problem-solving, building resilience & communication skills, and acquiring a greater appreciation of food that will last a lifetime.

Permaculture farming & local wildlife at Seneca Creek 

Hands-on experience outdoors motivates our children to write in their nature journals, participate in creative arts play & outdoor games, and engage in arts & crafts. Our activities are intended to mark the discoveries and curiosities found on the farm and in the forest. 

In the Forest

Freedom & wonder at play

Immersive contact with nature promotes a child’s creativity and imagination, intellectual and cognitive development and boosts social relationships. From building forts with friends to creating mandalas from items found by the creek, these dynamic natural playscapes instill confidence and joy.

My son absolutely loves the farm and forest program. Ms. Brenda is wonderful!"

The waterfall, where we hike to, is calming because I get to hear the sounds of the water. It's beautiful."

Tina, Mom

Thanks for being a person who is finding a way to bring children outdoors and giving them a way to connect with the earth..."
