Kaleo Farms Homeschool Fellowship
Faith. Family. Friendship. Farm Life.
A welcoming place where homeschool children and parents can build friendships, enjoy the outdoors, interact with animals, and experience life on the farm together.
First gathering: Tuesday, August 25, 2026
Friendship and Fellowship on the Farm
Kaleo Farms Homeschool Fellowship is being created for families who want more opportunities to connect with other homeschool families.
This is not a traditional academic co-op filled with classes and schoolwork. Our focus is fellowship, friendship, socialization, outdoor play, animals, hands-on activities, and having fun together on the farm.
Kaleo Farms Homeschool Fellowship is open to children ages 3–18. Activities may be organized into age-appropriate breakout groups as participation grows. To make these groups possible, we ask parents to remain involved and be willing to volunteer, assist with activities, or help lead breakout groups when needed.
What Families Can Expect
During our gatherings, children and families may have opportunities to:
-
Interact with farm animals
-
Enjoy outdoor games and activities
-
Play and explore the farm
-
Meet other homeschool families
-
Build lasting friendships
-
Experience farm life together
-
Create community for children and parents
Specific activities may vary based on the weather, season, participating families, and what is happening on the farm.
