Now with OneFire… We’re excited to join Wellspring and OneFire programs starting in Fall 2026.

With the woods, creeks, and fields of the Farm as our classroom, all Wellspring Forest Farm youth programs hold a gentle daily rhythm, including core routines that evolve with the season and support the interconnected elements of farming, nature, and people to connect body, soul, and spirit. All of Wellspring's programs are engaging, participatory experiences, designed to foster curiosity, creativity, and confidence. Your kids can expect a full day of play, adventure, and learning outside, including activities like tending to plants and animals, harvesting, enjoying seasonal garden snacks, movement and games, music, crafts, stories, fire, shelter-building, carving, archery, water, mud, and more. 

Unless noted, programs are for kids ages 4 to 8 years old. All kids should be potty-trained, comfortable outdoors for an extended time, dress appropriately and in layers, and bring a backpack with a snack, lunch, and a change of clothes. Programs are small groups with 2-4 mentors. Please plan to drop off and pick up your child on time, as we will head out for adventure and opening circle just after drop-off. 

Tiered pricing is based on household income and listed on specific program pages. See our policies for more information.

All programs listed below are at Wellspring Forest Farm, 6164 Deer Run Lane, Trumansburg.

Lead mentors are CPR-certified and have completed all NYS-required background screenings and health checks.
