The farm

Little Farm School is a small, hands-on preschool on a working hobby farm, where Little Farmers work alongside the Big Farmers to get the chores done.

The land

Located on three acres and only 10 minutes southwest of downtown Spokane, our little farm has a 1/4 acre garden, a baby orchard, and pumpkin patch. For art projects and to get out of inclement weather, we head into Clifford, the Big Red Shipping Container.

The teachers

  • Susannah Klotz

    Teacher

    Susannah is a seasoned early childhood educator we are very lucky to have at farm school! After spending many years as a preschool teacher in a private program on the west side of the state, Susannah moved eastward with her family and has been providing in-home childcare since.

    Susannah is a serious dog-lover and very talented photographer when she isn't organizing fun activities and play for Little Farmers.

    She is excited to work with your kids and see them grow alongside each other.
