Innovative and Enriching Preschool and Before & After School Programs for Children 3-12 Years Old

The goal of Nature’s Nursery programs is to develop confident, motivated lifelong learners with strong academic skills, inquisitive attitudes, keen social intelligence, and critical, creative thinking abilities. A quality learning process encourages children in hands-on discovery and interaction with nature and animals at our farm and unique outdoor spaces. We celebrate each child’s strengths, respecting their individual needs and allowing them to explore in an accepting, nurturing environment.

Our Preschool program meets New York State academic curriculum standards along with creative and enriching activities such as arts & crafts, community service projects and nature study. Before & After School programs feature age-appropriate recreation activities, as well as homework help and group projects to engage young minds.

Schedule a tour and see our littlest learners in action.

Britt the Pony Mule

Britt (left) is a pony mule that came to Green Chimneys through a rescue program in New Hampshire. Upon her arrival, Britt quickly found a best friend in a brown pony named Dixie (right). Britt may be small for her breed but her talents should not be underestimated. From an instinctive ability to relax many of the children she works with to naturally being able to tell time – she’s known to bray just before mealtime!
