We are now accepting requests for our exclusive new homeschool offerings
at Dalby Farm in Scituate MA! New for 2025!
Join us for exclusive learning sessions at Dalby Farm, where homeschool / co-op groups (with adult) can sign up for weekly, seasonally relevant homesteading lectures, activities & farm exploration.
All groups will enjoy “VIP Farm” access and will receive their own designated study spot somewhere on the beautiful 160-year-old farm with our loving, endangered animal family near by.
You can design your experience!
Homeschool hours will run in 4 week sessions, offered two days a week.

PICK YOUR EXPERIENCE:
One of our missions at Dalby is to give you a place to “find YOUR happy”. When it comes to how you want to learn, we understand one approach never fits all!
OPTION 1: DIY - Farm Classroom: Bring your materials, your curriculum and your students- find your designated Study Spot on the farm and learn your way! A customizable homeschool venue for 2 farm fresh hours! Groups will have access to a Dalby Farm Educator to answer any/all questions you may have during your learning journey!
OPTION 2: Learn & Lunch: While we encourage you to bring any/all curriculum you wish to cover during your farm exploration time, if you select Learn & Lunch we will take care of some of the structure!
For example: A typical day might look like this:
11am-11:30am - Arrive & Acclimate
11:30am-12:15pm- ~30 min educational lecture & * Picnic Lunch
12:15-1pm- Educational Activity and/or Farm Exploration Time
* Bring your own peanut free picnic lunch!
Each week (Tuesday AND Thr/Fri) will cover the same educational topic.
Once enrollment has begun, we will post a calendar of topics Option 2 will cover.
Please note!
Groups who select OPTION 1 are always welcome (but never required) to participate in that day’s scheduled farm activities (except the lecture) as they take place.
Groups can opt to come Tuesday for the lecture day, and sign up for THR/FRI (depending on the month) as a DIY Farm Classroom day (or vice versa!)
Others may enjoy 2 DIY Farm classroom days a week, or perhaps 1 Lunch & Learn a week. This is the beauty of homeschool, am I right?! Oh, we also offer one-off DROP-IN for groups that just want to visit once a season!
Up to you!
