After-School at Spence's Farm

Our After-School program is designed to give children the opportunity to decompress, complete their homework, and learn-by-doing. The beautiful, open farm environment helps children feel centered, calm, and happy. They are well-supervised, free to move around outdoors or in, help out in the barn, or just read a book! Nobody misses their TV or Wii – why would they when they can go feed the goats, throw a clay pot, or hang out in a tree when they’re done with their assignments?

After-School on the Farm is centered in the main farmhouse and in our extensive out-buildings and grounds. Children receive a healthy snack and receive help and supervision with homework. From 4 – 5:30 each day they can choose which focused activity they wish to do (i.e. work in garden, play in the yard, do crafts, cook from the garden, hike, work with the animals, and more! You may also add in Enrichment Classes such as pottery, horsemanship or woodshop for an additional fee. Children have choices!

How it Works … You get to decide what works for you! You can sign your child(ren) up for just one day a week, Monday through Friday, or anything in between! As long as within Farm policy you can even change your schedule without penalty. We make it work for you.

Schedule & Logistics … made easy! After-School hours are from 3 to 6 pm each day. Serving most schools within Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Durham, Orange County & in Hillsborough, Farm vans pick up students at their school & drop off at the Farm. Some school buses will drop off at parents’ request.

Brown Elementary, Grey Culbreth Middle, Hillsborough Elementary, McDougle, Montessori Day, Morris Grove, Pathways Elementary, Phillips Middle, CW Stanford Middle, Rashkis, Scroggs, & Seawell.

On the Farm, we believe each child, each mentor, each staff member, has something to share with others, and something to learn. We strive to improve ourselves and the Farm each and every day. Parents and kids are encouraged to have input, we welcome their ideas, energy and support, and invite our families to be a part of the Farm’s future as we build a valuable community resource.
