  "If you had asked me two years ago, at the onset of working at Little Farm School, what I was most excited for, I would have probably told you "building relationships with the people and the land". After these many moons, my greatest takeaway is something different and unexpected- my relationship with myself and my own experience of living. My life is slower, my body, head & heart feel more present (the likes of which they haven't been since my own childhood). Children offer us endless opportunities to reassess our own expectations & boundaries, to greet the present moment with wonder, to notice the narratives inside our minds and decide whether or not they serve us. This is what a position with Little Farm School has gifted me: a fortified connection with not only the people and the land here, but with my intuition and inner self. The contentment and gratitude run deep." -Miss Kat

  "As an LFS caregiver of 10 years, I continue to be grateful for an overall sense of warmth, love and joy that LFS exuberates each and every day.  Lifeways principle #10 places high value on an intrinsic purpose and need for caregivers to be recognized, valued and appreciated.  Our director goes above and beyond to ensure a holistic environment based on authentic connection and  individual autonomy in all our relationships.  Children are revered as are their caregivers.  We extend such reverence to our families and community and we feel it immensely in return.  Working at LFS is a gift beyond measure that lives in me through all aspects of my life.  It is my home away from home and a sanctuary that I'm honored to be a part of!" - Miss Sonya

"I am beyond thrilled to have spent almost three years at Little Farm School, where I have discovered a profound sense of community and belonging. I have always yearned for a supportive environment like this, and I feel incredibly fortunate to have found it. The LifeWays philosophy of "Home Away From Home" perfectly encapsulates the essence of Little Farm School, where parents, children, and teachers unite in a shared journey of growth and discovery. What I find truly inspiring is the way we empower children to take an active role in cultivating, harvesting, preparing, and savoring nutritious meals. By partnering with local farmers, we not only support our community but also provide the children with a unique opportunity to connect with their food. As I reflect on my experience at farm school, I am filled with gratitude for this extraordinary community that has become my second family, making me feel more at home than I ever thought possible." -Miss Tyra
