Rambling Roots
Academy

Where curiosity leads the way.

Welcome to our private mini-farm, tucked away in the heart of the Lowcountry, right behind our cozy home! From the front, it may look like just another residence, but step into the backyard and you’ll discover a hidden world where children, nature, and animals come together in harmony.  Rambling Roots Academy offers inspired learning experiences where curiosity blossoms, creativity flourishes, and hands-on exploration fosters a passion for lifelong learning. Our half-day program combines farm-based, Montessori-inspired learning with inquiry-based topics that encourage development in essential academic, social, and life skills, as well as a rooted relationship with farm-inspired learning.

Each week, our young learners embark on a new journey through thoughtfully designed themes that align with the rhythms of the farm and the seasons. From exploring animal tracks and identifying leaves to learning how bread is made or investigating the wonders of the night sky, every lesson weaves together hands-on experiences and meaningful learning. Topics like “The Web of Life,” “Small but Mighty Insects,” and “Composting & Recycling” teach practical life skills and environmental awareness, while activities like gardening, hatching chicks, and creating natural paints ignite creativity and a sense of wonder.

Guided by nurturing educators and supported by a close-knit community, children at Rambling Roots Academy gain confidence, independence, and real-world skills through child-led exploration. Our focus on seasonal changes, farm traditions, and collaborative play ensures that every child leaves with a deeper connection to themselves, their peers, and the world around them.

At Rambling Roots Academy, learning is joyful, engaging, and rooted in the beauty of the farm. Come join us, and let’s nurture a lifelong love of learning, one adventure at a time!
