    We’re excited to welcome new families for the full launch of Sunflower Seedlings Preschool in September 2025!

  • No Gear? No Problem!

    We have a mostly thrifted gear library that families can borrow from anytime!

    Nothing should stand in the way of children exploring nature! High-quality outdoor gear can be expensive, so let us help!

    Borrow from gear library!

  • Join our growing community!

    We believe childhood should be full of wonder, discovery, and the freedom to explore. Through curiosity, connection, and creativity, we nurture a love for nature, learning, and adventure—one muddy puddle and curious question at a time!
