Outdoor activities at Abby’s Farm help children understand stewardship for the land and an appreciation for the beauty of our Earth. Working and observing in a natural setting is healthy, motivating and cultivates a sense of wonder.
At our Nature Lab, our focus is on environmental sciences, conservation and personal responsibility. Concepts include critical thinking, creativity, communication, problem solving and flexibility.
