Hidden Trails
Forest and Farm School
From sheltered learning spaces to open trails and animal areas, Hidden Trails Forest and Farm School is designed to support childhood that is active, connected, and rooted in the natural world.
Spaces Designed for Meaningful Learning
At Hidden Trails, the environment is part of the learning. Our campus is designed to support curiosity, confidence, and connection by giving children spaces where they can move, explore, create, and engage with the world around them in real ways.
Covered, partially enclosed learning spaces offer comfort and flexibility through changing weather, while our outdoor areas invite children into daily hands-on experiences that feel grounded, joyful, and alive. Every part of the property is intended to support learning that is relational, experiential, and deeply connected to childhood.
Two Connected Worlds,
One Learning Environment
Learning Spaces
Our covered, partially enclosed learning spaces create room for gathering, making, observing, and learning together throughout the seasons. These areas provide structure without separating children from the sights, sounds, and rhythms of the outdoors.
Nature playgrounds and mud kitchens encourage imaginative play, problem-solving, sensory exploration, and collaboration. These spaces are intentionally simple, open-ended, and inviting, allowing children to interact with materials and one another in ways that build creativity and independence.
Farm and Trail Spaces
Walking trails invite children to explore at a slower pace, notice seasonal change, and build a relationship with the land over time. These pathways create daily opportunities for movement, discovery, and reflection.
Our animal spaces introduce children to horses, chickens, goats, rabbits, and pigs, offering meaningful moments of care, observation, and connection. Through these experiences, children begin to understand responsibility, gentleness, and the interdependence of living things.
