Hooley Farms- Horses, Highlands & Flowers

09/13/2026

What a great week of bringing learning to life!

This week, we visited 8 different Fort Wayne Community Schools elementary schools! Kindergarten students had the opportunity to get a firsthand look at what they’re learning about during their CKLA Farms unit. They interacted with our animals, asked great questions, and learned what makes each farm animal unique.

And one of our favorite numbers from the week… more than 500 kindergarten students got the chance to hold a goat!

A fun fact students learned: Cows and goats are ruminants! Their stomachs have four compartments, and they often lie down and rechew their food as part of the digestion process. That's called chewing their cud!

We’re looking forward to another great week of creating hands-on learning experiences for even more kindergarten students!

Bringing learning to life, one goat, cow, donkey, and horse at a time!

Escape to the Farm 🌻

A rare opening in our calendar means you can now book the kind of getaway that usually books out a month at a time. Curl up in your own private retreat surrounded by grazing horses, gentle Highland cows, and gardens bursting with color.

Whether you’re craving a weekend away or a quiet personal reset, this is your chance to slow down and breathe. Wander the flower garden at golden hour, coffee in hand, while dahlias, zinnias, celosia, and cosmos put on their late-summer show. Watch the horses graze from your window. Say hello to the Highland cows.

Interested in a day visit during the week instead? Just reach out — we’d love to have you.

🌧️ When it rains, it pours! 🌧️

Unfortunately, due to all of the ketchup and mustard colors on the radar this morning, we are going to CANCEL this morning’s event at the farm.

We hate to cancel, but soggy flowers, muddy fields, farm animals, and thunderstorms aren't the best combination!

Please also keep those throughout Central Indiana in your prayers. We have many friends in the Anderson/Muncie area whose homes and communities have been severely damaged by the storms.

Mark your calendars for Friday, August 28th! Free Night at the Farm! More details coming soon.

CHANGE OF PLANS… BUT THE FLOWERS ARE STILL BLOOMING!

The flower fields are a little soggy after the rain, so we're making a change to tomorrow's Back-to-School Flower Event!

Instead of You-Pick, we'll have fresh-cut bouquets available for purchase so you can enjoy the flowers without trekking through the wet fields.

🍎 Teachers receive 25% OFF their entire flower purchase!

🐐 We'll also have some of our farm animals out for you to meet and love on—if you don't mind braving a few wet feet!

And now for our favorite announcement… ❤️

We absolutely LOVED reading all of the nominations for the incredible teachers in our community. There were so many amazing stories that we couldn't choose just one winner!

So… EVERY TEACHER WHO WAS NOMINATED WILL RECEIVE A BOUQUET! 🎉💐

Over the next few weeks, we'll be delivering a fresh bouquet from Hooley Family Farms to every nominated teacher at their school!

Teachers, thank you for the countless ways you encourage, teach, love, and invest in your students. We're grateful for you and hope a little farm-grown color helps brighten the start of your school year!
