Hi, Friends!
I'm Kimberly Forcum, and my life has always been rooted in family, faith, and the beauty of the outdoors. Here at Cairn Creek, I'm blessed to share this land with my husband Jeremy, our four boys—Carsyn, Colby, Cowen, and Cruz—and a barnyard full of animals that keep life joyful.
After nearly a decade as a licensed preschool teacher, I felt called to create something different: a learning environment where children explore, imagine, and discover through hands-on nature experiences rather than traditional classroom walls. That vision became Wildwood Academy—where faith, nature, and learning come together.
At Wildwood, every day is an opportunity to experience God's goodness. Whether caring for barn animals, exploring the forest, or gathering in community, children learn they are wonderfully made and grow in confidence, curiosity, and character through primitive outdoor skills, risky play, and full immersion in nature.
When you visit The Barn—for nature school, a barn rental, or a family event—I hope you feel the peace that comes from slowing down, unplugging, and reconnecting with what matters most. This is where faith, family, and fresh air meet, and we're excited to share it with you.
"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." — Matthew 19:14
