For Little Ones

Mama & Me on the Farm

A gentle, sensory-rich morning designed for the youngest farmers and their grown-ups. Little ones open the barn, help care for the animals, and dig into a hands-on seasonal activity that mirrors the real work happening on the farm that week — planting, harvesting, tending, or gathering — then explore at their own pace and gather for story time under the old oak tree. It's the kind of grounded, open-air play that builds confidence, curiosity, and a real connection to the land from the very start.

Wednesdays · 10 AM – 12 PM
Ages 1+
$25 first child · $20 sibling · $50 family max

For Bigger Kids

Harvest Makers Craft Club

A seasonal, hands-on barn class where older kids step into real farm rhythm. Each session, they meet the animals, take on an assigned barn chore, and create a heritage craft born from the land and the season we're living in. We close with Charlotte Mason narration, a reflection circle, and free-range farm play — building capability, stewardship, and a sense of belonging that runs deep.

Our Story

Heart Rock Farm School

Jakubec Farms is a fourth-generation family farm in Damon, Texas. In 2023, we opened Heart Rock Farm School to offer a place where families can slow down, explore, and learn through real farm experiences.

Founded and led by Kara Jakubec, licensed professional counselor and educator with 15 years of experience, our offerings bring together real farm experiences and an extensive understanding of developmental needs — creating spaces that are deeply therapeutic in nature, helping children and families thrive with confidence, connection, and grounded belonging.

We are a community rooted in real connection, hands-on experiences, and the seasonal rhythms of the land.

Slow mornings, real work, and the kind of childhood that stays with you.

Nature-Based Learning

Children learn through mud, animals, weather, and wonder — the kind of experiences that help them feel capable and alive.

Emotional Connection

With guidance from a licensed professional counselor, kids grow steadiness, confidence, and belonging in ways that feel natural and joyful.

Intentional Design

Our approach is research-informed and hands-on, shaped by the land and designed to be deeply supportive for kids and families.

Stay on the Farm

Book the Farmhouse. Build Your Own Stay.

A Low-Stress Outing for Me

My son had a blast at farm school! He loved completing farm chores and hanging with all of the animals in the barn. There were so many options for him to choose his adventure of the day. It was a very low stress outing for me and I felt relaxed the entire time. I love what they are doing here!

— Chelsea B.

Endless Imagination

Farm school is ran by such a sweet family! I am so grateful we came across Jakubec farms and their community. They create such a fun, safe, and grounding environment not only for the little ones but the parents as well. When you come to farm school there is no constantly telling the kids to stop that, don't do that it is a time for endless imagination and truly getting the feel of what farming life is like. I would recommend trying to attend at least one event because you will truly not regret it.

— Haley B.

She Helped Him Find His Way

We've known Kara since she worked with our teenage son in high school. She helped him find his way in the world and become the man he is today. I highly recommend any program Kara and her family run! We visited the family farm this spring and got our own farm school education, harvesting sweet corn, helping at the farm stand and spending time with the animals. If you are anywhere near Damon Texas check out what they have going on!!

— Kim B.

A Peaceful Reset to the Chaos in Life

We have been going to farm school now for almost a year, it by far is our favorite homeschool weekly activity! All the friends we have made have turned into family. Kara does such a great job at giving each individual kid a task she knows they need and will love - with the animals. The farm is a peaceful and relaxing reset to all the chaos in life we all need!!!

— Brittany S.

Kids Light Up with Curiosity & Confidence

I can't say enough wonderful things about Heart Rock Farm School. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care and dedication goes into every aspect of the school. Kara is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about teaching children about farming, nature, and sustainability. The curriculum is hands-on and engaging, giving students the opportunity to learn through real-world experiences—feeding animals, planting gardens, exploring the outdoors and learning all of the day to day things happening on the farm. It's amazing to see kids light up with curiosity and confidence as they connect with the land and the animals. Beyond the educational value, the environment is warm, welcoming, and nurturing. The sense of community here is truly special, and it's evident that every child (and the parents!) is valued and supported. If you're looking for a school that inspires a love of nature, teaches responsibility, and cultivates lifelong skills, this is the place to be. We love Heart Rock Farm School!
