Powered by GoogleOur son attended Sunny Truth for three years and loved every day he was there. Chris is a wonderful teacher and has beautiful land-- perfect for young children to explore and learn. I recommend giving your child an all outdoor experiential education at Sunny Truth!
Our son loves nature school with Mr. Chris at Sunny Truth Farms! He gets excited to go and is tuckered out by the time we pick him up. Chris does a great job teaching, and instructing the children. It’s apparent that our child is safe, and well looked after. We highly recommend Sunny Truth Farms.
Sunny Truth Farm has been and continues to be a wonderful school for both of my children. Farm school is an exceptional program that helps kids connect to nature, socialize with peers, boosts confidence, and is overall very fun for them! The summer camps are also a fabulous program that my kids ask about all year. I love that my kids can go and just be kids in a program while simultaneously bonding with the nature around them. Chris is a wonderful teacher who handles my high energy and high emotion children with patience and understanding. We are very thankful for this program!
I definitely recommend Sunny Truth Farm. Chris and Lesley have "coached" our family as we are trying to become chicken hosts. We appreciate their enthusiasm and expertise! More importantly though, our children love their summer farm camp. It is hard to find summer activities that would accommodate a wide age of kids, but they do. My children were so happy and excited about each day at farm camp. They learned a great deal and had positive, loving guidance about the outdoors. Sunny Truth Farm has a compelling blend of domestic and wild aspects to it. There are domesticated things to explore like the barn, veggies/fruits/flowers, and a variety of farm animals. There are wild things to explore like the woods, the creek and the sky (I have a bird enthusiast!). In addition, Chris' years of work experience in parks and recreation, plus years of parenting his own kids, all shine through as he helps kids get to know each other, play games, collaborate and grow in their self-confidence.
Sunny Truth Farm Preschool was such a fantastic experience for all of us- my son loved exploring in the woods and interacting with the farm animals and nature. My husband, daughter and I enjoyed the stories and the feeling of being more connected to the seasons with regard to what our son told us the animals, plants and weather did on preschool days. Chris has an amazing ability to command attention with calm and supportive guidance. I highly recommend Sunny Truth Farm Preschool!
