Our program is located on a working, family owned farm. Our learning environment includes an outdoor playground, garden, and nature trails designed to allow children to explore, face new challenges, and develop a sense of independence and self-reliance. A variety of unique experiences will be available to our students such as interacting with the animals on site (like goats, pigs, chickens, dogs, and cats), building fires, climbing trees, growing their own food, and much more.
Roots of Life encourages the involvement of parents and families as we believe it is a united effort to support the holistic growth and development of our children. Therefore, we do ask that parents be willing to volunteer their time (such as by preparing food, supporting on a field trip, working on the property, making toys, etc.) We will also offer extended activities for parents and families such as a monthly discussion group. When a child joins Roots of Life, the family joins us as well. It is a space for living and learning together.

Children must be able to communicate their needs for a restroom and be potty proficient. Children should be able to follow directions, safety rules, and guidelines at all times. We have open enrollment until we are at our maximum capacity.
We ask for a full term commitment but payment can be made month by month at the beginning of each month. We encourage and recommend four days per week, but we may be able to accommodate families who can only attend fewer days. There are no deductions from the monthly tuition for holidays, vacations, sick days, or other unforeseen circumstances. If the family is unable to manage the tuition rate, there is a sliding scale available upon request and we can make adjustments as needed. Please let us know when you apply if you require financial assistance. We also have reduced rates for families with more than one child attending the program.
