StoneLedge Stables is a 501c3 dedicated to promoting the social and emotional development of children through farm-based programming with rescued farm animals. Small, mixed age groups of children, ages 2-8,engage in a wide variety of activities on our farm in Norwich, Vermont: They feed and care for our horse, pigs, chickens, goat, and therapy dogs. Students tend gardens, clean stalls, and gather eggs. They engage in art, cooking, music, vernal pool and field exploration, native plant and animal study, mud kitchen play, and wood-working projects.
Experienced educators and animal facilitators nurture the students’ compassion, resilience, as well as their connectedness with nature, themselves, and each other. We are a place, a community, and a learning environment free from screens, where students can recharge and learn the crucial skills of social and emotional awareness. It is a place to get messy, try new things and forge bonds.
Connecting hearts and minds in the natural world.
