“Our daughter had her first care other than us (ever) at Ithaca Forest Preschool. The teachers, students, and parents all treated our entire family with so much care and appreciation for this big transition. It’s so meaningful to me to know my child is spending her early years in the wild and surrounded by these individuals. I can’t imagine a better way for her to develop in these early years than for her to be discussing thoughtful harvesting at 4H Acres. We can’t wait to enroll her for another year!” J.D.
