At Hartland Oaks, we offer immersive, hands-on educational experiences tailored for homeschool groups, school field trips, daycares, scouts, co-ops, and other learning communities.
Our farm-based curriculum brings science, agriculture, and animal care to life in a way textbooks never could.

Animal Education Stations – Learn about goats, donkeys, rabbits, pigs, chickens, ducks, miniature cows, and more. Kids get to touch, feed, and interact while learning about breeds, habitats, and care.
Farm Chores for a Day – Students can participate in age-appropriate farm duties like collecting eggs, feeding animals, brushing donkeys, or gathering hay.
Agriculture & Homestead Lessons – Hands-on mini-lessons in composting, gardening, chicken life cycles, hatching quail, goat milk production, and more.
Farm-Themed Storytime & Crafts – Perfect for younger groups; includes story readings (featuring Hartland Oaks' very own animals) and simple take-home crafts.
Custom Experiences – We tailor visits to fit your group’s age range, learning goals, or special needs.
Program Details: Available for ages 3+ Groups of all sizes welcome Aligned with educational standards where possible Programs run approximately 2 hours.
Pricing is per person.
