Sprouting a Farm to Keiki Program

A 3 hour online course for early childhood educators and homeschool parents.

We’ve moved our in-person training online! The first 60 early childcare educators to complete the course will get a FREE copy of the Farm to Keiki book! Mahalo to our sponsor the Hawai’i Department of Health!

I’m bringing my signature in-person Farm to Keiki training course online… for free! In 2019, over 400 early childhood educators throughout Hawai’i took this training. When our Oahu training sold out within 2 days, I knew I needed to figure out a way to reach more educators! While online education is never the same as in-person, this course is an excellent opportunity learn the essential elements needed to start a Farm to Keiki program at your early care center!

What's in the course?

-Module 1: Farm to Keiki in your Early Care Center

-Module 2: Meet the Plants

-Module 3: Farm to Keiki Lessons

-Module 4: Gardening with Children

-Module 5: Cooking and Nutrition with Children

Farm to Keiki Master Course

Farm to Keiki Learning Collaborative

A two month intensive for early childhood educators

This is a cohort course designed for educators who are ready to take a deeper dive into Farm to Keiki. Teachers love the 3 hour Farm to Keiki training, but they always left telling me they wanted more! More how-to’s, more time, more mentorship, more support! To answer this call, I’ve created this 8 week learning collaborative. The first cohort is Kaua’i early childhood educators only. The second cohort will launch in 2021 and is open to all educators.
