Testimonials

“We thoroughly enjoyed our first experience at Little Farmers. Our instructor Katie did a wonderful job choosing activities that were age-appropriate and fun! The pacing was also great, not too long or too short for each activity. My son especially enjoyed helping cook his own snack each week and playing in the barn. It was nice to have a focus or theme each week and to see different animals each time. We packed a picnic and enjoyed the Steckle grounds after class on a couple of occasions. Thank you!”

“I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful birthday party we had. Allie was so friendly and was great with the kids and the activities were just right for the kids! Although it ended up being a small party everyone had a great time! All the guests mentioned that it was a great birthday party. Even my son keeps saying that it was the best birthday party and it was “so fun”. Thanks for your help arranging the party and I will definitely be recommending Steckle Heritage Farm to my friends. ”

“I just wanted to let you know that R, and all of our guests, children and adults included, had a blast at the party yesterday! … [It] was really the perfect mix of activities/structure to keep the kids busy and engaged, and downtime for socializing and having snacks. All of our Toronto guests said they didn’t have anything like it at home, which is saying something! The look on R’s face when everyone was in the tractor and it began to move was totally priceless-he was in heaven! He was also very excited to see your turkey again, as he loved meeting her last summer. Thank you so very much for everything!”

“We just wanted to thank you SO much for making O’s Birthday such a fantastic day. We really appreciate all of your efforts to make it a huge success, in spite of the bumps the weather created. We love the farm so much and all that it stands for, so thank you so much for allowing us to share that with O and his friends.”

“We just wanted to say thank you to Steckle farm and Julia for a great birthday party for M and R. Julia was wonderful with the kids. We can see how she will be a great teacher. We also owe a thank you to the animals for letting us visit with them! We all fell in love with TeeTee who stayed with us for most of the tour and allowed us to pet her often. Have a great summer and thank you again.”

“The two weeks that A was at camp (with K) were the best of our summer as she was so happy and loved every minute of it. She will be back in October, AND definitely next summer. I am hopeful she can be a junior leader (in training?) if she has matured a bit more. I think she would thrive.”

“I would like to thank you both for a wonderful day. By all accounts, everyone had a great time. And your respective staff were both professional, and in the case of Steckle, engaging for the children. The casualness of the day was very relaxing for me having organized the event for my company, but also for our staff and their families.”

“We had a fantastic experience and I would recommend this program to other people. My child had a wonderful time petting the animals, learning about farm life, and riding the wagon!”

“We had a fabulous 8 weeks at Steckle. It truly is one of my favourite places to come and explore with the kids. Lorie did a fantastic job with the kids. We all enjoyed her engaging, kind nature. She always had great activities planned and really took the time to get to know the kids. Thank you so much for a great session!”

“Thank you for an amazing evening–you and your team put together an amazing event…all in the midst of tornado warnings! The games, Erik Traplin, and the food were amazing–it was a lovely way for us to spend our daughter’s 3rd birthday! ”
