About our Tuesday Homeschoool Session
Register for all three seasons at once and receive a discount!
As an organic, regenerative farm, Holly Hill Farm is a perfect place to discover ways that people have learned from nature to support human life, as we prioritize working with nature in our farming practices. We will use the farm and nearby trails as our setting for learning, socialization, teambuilding, and play.
This year, children will learn how people have engineered solutions to problems in ways that were influenced by natural systems. Throughout the year, students will recreate or invent technologies using nature as our guide, learn about ways that people have survived by living off the land, and gain gardening knowledge by helping to grow produce in our education garden at the farm.
Students will have opportunities to not only help grow food to donate to local food pantries, they will get to taste our produce and work together to make dishes straight from the garden as well as locally foraged plants. The group will go on excursions into the forest to learn about our local ecosystem, practice survival skills, and collect items from nature to work on projects throughout our time at the farm.
The farm educators will also create time for socializing, play, and following children’s interests. The lead teachers and education team will modify lessons based on these needs and interests.
Each child will be registered as part of an FHHF program.
FAMILY INVOLVEMENT:
In addition to a weekly newsletter, families will be invited to participate in monthly markets, presentations, or meals prepared by the groups. If family members have specific skills they would like to share with the group, we welcome your knowledge and expertise.
NOTE: In the spring of 2027, we have plans to construct a dedicated program and event building on the farm following sustainable building practices. The project should not impact the homeschool program as the building site and access road will be behind the barnyard. The construction could provide an opportunity for the students to follow the progress each week and to make connections to the technologies and designs they have learned about throughout the year. If you have questions about the new building, please reach out to our Executive Director, Meredith Laban meredith@hollyhillfarm.org.

Registration and Tiered Pricing
1. SELECT YOUR PRICE TIER
We strive to make educational programming accessible to all ages. Tiered pricing allows families to choose the price that is right for their family, while also becoming more aware of the costs associated with putting on educational programs for each child. This program is voluntary and families are free to choose the tier that best suits their financial situation.
What are the tiers?
Tier A: Cost to run program + contribution to support tiered pricing
Tier B: Cost to run program
Tier C: Reduced price
If your family is unable to meet Tier C pricing, they can apply for additional scholarship funding. Learn more.
If your family can choose a higher tier, it allows more children to access programming. Your support allows Friends of Holly Hill Farm to better utilize the charitable contributions we need to operate our non profit organization and continue with our mission of growing food for our community, educating all ages, and caring for this precious land and beloved barnyard animals. When you select Tier A, the portion of your payment above the cost of the program is tax deductible.

A: Yes, simply sign up and email our office and we'll refund the difference for the sessions missed.
Q: How do I register?
A: New families will set up a household account. Returning families simply login and make updates as needed and register. We always recommend setting up your account, loading all your children's health forms, checking your account and your children's info, etc.. in advance of registration day to help save you the time!
Q: I tried preregistering but it doesn't recognize my email?
A: If you already set up a household account on hollyhillfarmprogramregistration.org, simply log in with the email you used. You can reset your password if needed. If you have not signed up for a program in in the past then set up a new account. Issues resetting your password? email us at programs@hollyhillfarm.org
Q: What if I don't have my child's health care letter from their provider? Or it is old? Or they haven't had a physical yet this year?
A: You must submit a letter to complete your registration online - the system will not let you skip this step. State and local health administrations require us to receive and review these letters and visits/letters must be current (less than 16 months from the start of their program). Upload the most recent copy you have when registering. Later on go back into your child's profile and scroll to the bottom to upload their new new letter (make sure to do this by September 1, 2026).
Q: I already uploaded their physician's letter on this site before. Why do I need to again?
A: We are required to review recent letters prior to each program. As long as your letter/visit is dated less than 16 months from start of session you are registering for, it is good in our system for 6 months.
Q: I attached my child's physical/immunization letter and the window keeps popping up. It doesn't say it was uploaded.
A: Sometimes the system does that due to a technical glitch - even though the upload went through correctly. If for some reason your letter upload didn't go through it will prompt you to upload again at check out. If it does not prompt you, then you are all set. If it continues to give you issues you should make sure your file type meets the requirements it states. (JPG, PNG, DOC, DOCX and PDF files accepted)
Q: Due to documented exemptions my child only has their annual physical letter but no vaccination records. What do I do?
A: Upload a copy of the physician's recent physical letter with the child's clearance to participate in school, or sports, camps (missing the vaccination records) and a copy of the religious exemption document. If you have questions direct to programs@hollyhillfarm.org
Q: My child has allergies and/or may require medicine. Is there a form I need to complete?
A: Our Medicine Authorization Form, found on our program registration site should be completed by September 10, 2026. FHHF staff can only administer EpiPens and inhalers. We do not administer any other form of medication.
Q: Is this a drop off or can I stay with my child?
A: Fall programming is a drop-off program. However, of course, if you child needs help easing in we understand if they need a little help from you!
Q: If the program(s) I want is/are filled is there a wait list?
A: Yes, you can register for a waitlist for the week(s) you want on the registration site. We will notify interested applicants if openings become available based on the order received.
