Connecting to the Joy of Nature

Connolly Ranch Education Center connects children to nature through hands-on farm and outdoor experiences to develop curiosity, resilience, and well-being through education, exploration, and play. Established over 30 years ago, we continue to create a community that empowers the next generation of environmental stewards, thoughtful leaders, and problem-solvers.

We believe all children deserve a relationship with nature, which shapes their mental health and wellness, how they interact with others, and builds self-confidence.
