Wherever we are, this program is for outdoor loving families. We are outside most of the day all year round - quality gear/clothing is required.  Children should be familiar with being outside and wearing layers.  They are encouraged to listen to their own bodies and can remove and put on layers as needed. Rain pants are required in the fall, winter and spring months.

​

Our K-8 location has two garage studio buildings that have been converted to large classroom spaces. Opening out to our outdoor garden, field and orchard spaces, amenities include: teaching kitchen, heated floors, educational workshop zone, and large dedicated teaching and student workspace areas. 

 

Whether on the farm, in the forest, or on the playground, integrating nature and land stewardship is an integral part of program.  Children do daily chores, which is hard work, dirty, and smelly, but very rewarding. They get to shovel compost, harvest bounty, refill water containers, feed animals and wildlife, observe and respond to the land.  Our classes are based on seasonal activities and vary depending upon the season and what nature is providing.

 

Children get to experience the interconnectedness of living seasonally, respecting all living beings, and building a robust work ethic.
