Welcome to Idlehurst — a 120-year-old working farm turned haven for learning, and childhood joy. Located in Woodruff
Idlehurst is a 120-year-old working family farm in Woodruff, South Carolina, and home to a one-of-a-kind farm-based microschool. We blend traditional academics with hands-on experiences in gardening, horsemanship, and nature exploration. The farm also offers beginner horseback riding lessons, grass-fed, grass-finished beef, and heritage-breed poultry—inviting families to slow down, dig in, and grow together.
We embrace a learning environment that will prepare you for the path ahead. Whether you’re here for our beginner horseback riding lessons (for ages 7 through adult), farm-based microschool, grass-fed beef and poultry, or one of our seasonal events—Idlehurst offers hands-on experiences that connect families to the land, to learning, and to each other.
Idlehurst exists to nurture confidence, connection, and curiosity through hands-on farm experiences that help children and families grow—on and off the farm.
Be the first to hear about upcoming events, beef sales, horseback riding lessons, summer camps and more.
