A Slow Mondays Sanctuary
Visit on a MondayThree thoughtfully designed sessions, one perfect Monday — built around the rhythms of childhood, the seasons, and the slow magic of outdoor play.
Mondays · 9:00 – 11:30 AM
A magical, hands-on morning spent planting, harvesting, mixing soil, collecting specimens, feeding the garden, creating nature-based projects, and getting wonderfully muddy alongside new friends.
Children explore the rhythms of the farm through seasonal gardening, flower cutting, pollinator discovery, sensory play, outdoor art, harvesting snacks from the garden, and imaginative open-air learning designed to spark curiosity and confidence.
~40 hours of outdoor programming
~$21/hr before materials · ~$27/hr inclusive
Mondays · 12:30 – 1:30 PM
A relaxed open-play garden gathering for little ones and their grown-ups — designed more like a beautiful outdoor play space than a structured class.
Families wander, explore, snack, play, and connect at their own pace while children move freely through thoughtfully designed nature stations and sensory experiences. A gentle community hour centered around outdoor childhood, imaginative play, and meeting other families with children of similar ages.
Mondays · 2:30 – 4:30 PM
A relaxed weekly garden gathering for homeschool children, pods, sibling groups, and families looking to become part of a growing outdoor community rooted in creativity, nature, and slow childhood.
Rather than a traditional class, the Afternoon Garden Social is designed as an open-format membership experience where children can explore the gardens freely, work on seasonal projects, harvest flowers and herbs, build forts, create nature crafts, read beneath the trees, and spend meaningful time outdoors alongside other like-minded families.
The atmosphere is intentionally unstructured, allowing children space for independent play, imagination, social connection, and hands-on learning. Quiet study corners, picnic-table workspaces, and outdoor reading areas are also woven throughout the property — making this an ideal space for tutoring sessions, afterschool decompression, homework time, nature journaling, and screen-free afternoons outdoors.
Siblings +$25/month
Ways to bring your family, your friends, or your students into the garden — beyond our weekly programming.
A glimpse into a Monday at Garden Society — the slow, golden, dirt-under-fingernails kind of day we're building for you and yours.
Imagine your morning here. Linen dresses, dirty knees, slow coffee, and the kind of golden hour you'd cancel plans for.
Garden Society isn't only for the kids. It's a place where mothers, fathers, and caregivers can finally exhale — sit down with a real coffee, open the laptop in the shade, and meet the kind of people you actually want to spend a Monday with.
A built-in community of grown-ups doing the same beautiful, exhausting work as you. Real conversation, real connection, no small talk required.
Educational programming the whole family can be part of. Garden science, botany, butterflies, cooking from the soil — it's just as enriching for you as it is for them.
Hot coffee, cold brew, herbal tea from the garden, and reliable wifi throughout the property. Bring your mug, settle in, and stay a while.
Long farmhouse tables under the pergola and oak canopy. Open your laptop, take a call, knock out emails — while the kids run free just steps away.
Bring the toddlers. Bring the baby. Older kids can participate in programming and roam safely while you focus on the smallest one — no tag-team parenting required.
Skip the chaotic indoor playground and the same-old park. Garden Society is the play date upgrade your group chat has been waiting for — beautiful, calm, and built to host.
Drop the kids into the garden. Pour the second cup. Sit with someone who gets it. This is the village we've been missing.
Private bookings, monthly programming, and one-off events held throughout the season. Perfect for nannies, au pairs, homeschool pods, and after-school groups.
Custom outdoor learning days for private schools, micro schools, and homeschool collectives. Hands-on sessions in the kitchen garden, butterfly sanctuary, and outdoor classroom — built around your curriculum or simply built around wonder.
Inquire →A rotating calendar of wellness rooted in the garden. Sunrise yoga in the wildflower meadow, mommy + me sessions, goat yoga in the orchard, restorative tea parties, and seasonal flower-arranging workshops led by Lexi herself.
Sign Up →A welcoming, structured Monday for the people who are out with the children all day. Bring your kiddos, meet other caregivers, let them explore safely while you finally sit down for a minute.
Sign Up →Older children deserve a third place too. Garden Society's afterschool program brings real-world skills — composting, building, harvesting, cooking, and creative outdoor projects — to elementary and middle schoolers who need somewhere green and engaging to land.
Sign Up →Two ways to bring your circle into the garden — for a magical Sunday celebration, or a hands-on outdoor learning day with your school or pod.
Celebrate slow childhood outdoors with a simple, magical garden party — surrounded by flowers, mud kitchens, picnic blankets, climbing areas, and open-ended nature play. Families enjoy the property at their own pace while children explore the gardens, build forts, create nature crafts, and play freely beneath the trees.
Book a Party →Bring your class, homeschool pod, or micro school to the garden for a hands-on outdoor learning experience centered around planting, harvesting, nature exploration, and sensory play. Designed to reconnect children with the natural world through real, joyful, dirt-under-fingernails work.
Plan a Visit →Garden Society is not a school. Not a coworking space. Not a daycare, a farm stand, or a playground — though it borrows the very best of each.
It is a third place: that small, sacred category of spaces that aren't home and aren't work. A place to gather. A place that holds you for an afternoon and asks nothing in return except that you take your shoes off in the grass.
Tucked into the wild, oak-shaded acreage of Jupiter Farms, Garden Society is being shaped acre by acre into a slow, sunlit corner of the world where children run barefoot through butterfly gardens, mothers gather under string-lit pergolas with iced coffee and laptops, and the rhythm of the day is set by the sun, the seasons, and the soft hum of pollinators in the flowers.
We're opening on Mondays only for regular programming — a quiet, intentional rhythm that protects the magic. Beyond that, we're hosting field trips, micro school days, retreats, workshops, wellness gatherings, garden dinners, butterfly releases, and seasonal celebrations all year long.
If it sounds like a slow dream — that's because it is. It's the one we're building, and you're invited.
CEO · Event Designer · Flower Farmer · Butterfly Enthusiast
Garden Society was born out of a deep-rooted love for the soil, the slow rituals of growing things, and a quiet belief that community is best built outside — in dappled afternoon light, around long tables, with dirt under our fingernails.
After years of designing events and coaxing wild gardens into being, I wanted to create one beautiful, restful place where my own children could roam free, where parents could exhale, and where the next generation could meet bees, butterflies, and books in equal measure.
This is that place. Welcome.
We'd love to host you. Reach out for a Monday visit, a private booking, or just to say hi.
Homeschool pods, tutors, micro schools, learning circles, nannies, au pairs, and creative communities are all welcome. Come gather, grow, and thrive together — in a place that feels like the most beautiful Monday of your week.
