MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi! I’m Morgan, owner of Donkey River Farm and founder of Donkey River Nature Co-op.

As a mom and farm owner, I believe kids thrive outdoors—learning through real experiences, animals, nature, and creativity.

I created this co-op to offer families a nurturing, safe, small learning environment rooted in nature and connection.
