Affordable Early Education for Rural Communities

We Provide Child Care

We’ve created and funded Appletree Rensselaer, a 70-seat licensed child care center, in Rensselaer, IN, which is operated by Right Steps. Appletree serves children from birth through five years old.

We Are A Non-Profit

Appleseed Childhood Education is a non-profit organization that started at a farmhouse kitchen table. Our goal is to provide affordable child care and early learning opportunities for children and families in rural Jasper County, IN.

We Build Relationships

We exist because of investments from our public and private partners who believe in our mission.

We Are Advocates

Child care is essential infrastructure for modern rural communities. We advocate for affordable, quality child care for our community and others.
