Family Food Forest Class

Mentored by Rachel Von Neiderhausern

Not being taught for the 2023-24 school year. Look for it in years to come.

During this class families will learn earth science, permaculture, and georgic principles of growing, tending, and harvesting as they apply to the earth and themselves. Through hands-on work, sit spots, nature journaling, Harvest & May Day Celebrations, and special workshops each semester, we will discover and explore the layers of a food forest. Each student/family will complete a garden or husbandry project during the semester to apply the learning at home. We truly want this to be a family experience where the adults learn right along with the children and youth! So as you think about this class, please consider which parent/guardian or sibling 18+ can commit to coming with the student(s) each week.
