JUNIOR CARETAKER PROGRAM

Some of our best volunteers at Storybook Farm have been the Parent-Child Teams. They enjoy spending time together as a family while learning about animal care, the value of hard work, and the importance of caring for others. They also laugh, play, and find immense joy in two hours of experiencing farm life and getting to know over 30 animals, all in one beautiful place.

NOW offered: Mondays 4:00-6:00 and Fridays 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

LET THE STORY BEGIN

  • Chapter One: Confidence & Leadership

    Children gain confidence and purpose as they contribute to animal care

  • Chapter Two: Treasured Moments

    The Parent/child team will build lasting memories while learning the value of hard work, responsibility, and compassion in a Christ-centered environment.

  • Chapter Three: Responsibility & Work Ethic

    Children learn to care for animals and follow through on tasks in the Storybook Farm Care Guide. They check off their accomplishments as they are completed.
