Dodge Nature Preschool will celebrate its 25th anniversary at the Rock the Barn farm and music festival on Saturday, May 17, 2025. The preschool was one of the first nature preschools in the U.S. and a leader in early childhood environmental education.
More than 3,500 students have attended Dodge Nature Preschool since it opened in 2000. Those kids get a chance to go outside every day, regardless of the weather.
“Research continues to show the benefits to children’s wellbeing and healthy development when they spend time outside,” said Preschool Director Amy Warzybok.
