Farm Buddies is a social group led by a speech-language pathologist for 3-6 year old kids to come together in a fun, nature-based environment to work on their personal goals for social communication with other kids.

They could have trouble recognizing emotions and feelings in themselves or others, managing a shared space, advocating for themself and sharing their ideas, considering another kid’s perspective or opinion, finding ways to resolve a conflict, and/or having fun with friends. Farm Buddies participants will spend time together in joint or parallel play, reading stories, games, and other fun activities.

Farm Buddies participants might benefit from additional, individualized services from a speech-language pathologist to help with identifying their personal goals, unique strengths and abilities, areas for growth, and carry-over support for the social group.
