WELCOME FERN GULLY FOREST FRIENDS!
We provide fun and creative outdoor early education, preschool - kindergarten, as well as homeschooler enrichment programs.
We play in the garden, with small animals, and in the forest with ancient trees on the Eastside of Olympia.
Our mission is to teach children important social, emotional, and life skills through exploration in nature where they get to make friends, play and feel a sense of belonging and confidence to be themselves.
Hours: 9 am - 1 pm Monday - Friday
We also host an afternoon program from 1-5 pm. For more information on that, click here.
A portion of our proceeds go to land conservation and community projects through our nonprofit partner, the Community Nature Foundation
WHO WE ARE
We were founded by a collective of mothers and professional educators with a vision of a better tomorrow and resilient communities with children that are healthy, happy, creative, and confident. We encourage wilderness awareness and connection to the wisdom and medicine of nature while learning to listen and care for ourselves, others, and the Earth.
