Hi, I'm Lisa, the new owner of Hedgehog Farms, and I am thrilled to have this opportunity to share a wonderful assortment of books, wooden toys, natural playthings made of wool and silk, baby products, musical instruments, arts and craft materials and kits and so much more! I will strive to continue with the same spirit of enjoyment of all the beautiful items as well as service to you, our valued customer. I am in awe of the skill and time that goes into making all of our handcrafted items and I think how fortunate our children are to have the opportunity to enjoy magical play with them! I also love to read all the fantastical stories in the wonderful storybooks we have for all ages. The books are beautiful and the costumes and silks are exquisite!

The underlying goal of Hedgehog Farms will continue to be to provide the best in children's books and handcrafted toys, as well as Waldorf resources and supplies, to help you 'parent against the mainstream' at affordable prices. We actually have access to far more than what can be presented on these pages, so if you don't see it, please ask. Although I love Hedgehog Farms just as it is, surely it will continue to evolve to meet your needs. Your comments and suggestions are so important, please keep them coming!

I certainly share Nancy's philosophy: " Childhood is a wonderful and magical time. Children need the serious work of play to learn about the world and themselves. We as parents must strive to do our best to provide the best start possible for our children and protect the very magical time of childhood."

The products we carry are lovingly made by artisans who pride themselves on their work. They, too, are family run and we are proud to offer their handiwork. Other items are specially imported from England and Germany. We try to keep popular items in stock, however if something has to be back-ordered it may take 3 to 4 weeks for delivery. (Please keep in mind that holidays are busier than other times.) For most orders we ship within 10 working days.

My husband and I were parents at the Housatonic   Housatonic Valley Waldorf School in Connecticut where we learned how important it is to allow our child the space and time to enjoy their childhood, and we have recaptured some of our youth along the way! I hope you enjoy the following pages and remember to.....

Have a Day Full of Play!
