About Our Sensory Farm

Our Sensory Farm is a family-run, special-needs-friendly project in southern Chesapeake, Virginia, founded by a special education teacher to create inclusive outdoor experiences for children of all abilities. Note: after five years of onsite farm programming, the farm announced it is not opening to the public, hosting onsite events, private parties, or field trips for the current season, and is transitioning to a tutoring-focused chapter. Families should confirm current offerings directly before relying on prior farm-experience descriptions.

3.5 out of 5 based on published family feedback.

Positive experience overall

3.5/5

We transferred our child here last year. The transition went well and the staff was helpful. Academic progress has been decent. The main challenge is that it seems like a smaller operation, so there are occasional scheduling conflicts. The cost is significant, so that was a consideration for us. We would recommend to others but encourage parents to visit first.
