Registration ends at 3 p.m., Friday, June 13.
Cost (1 student & 1 caregiver): $12 total | $10 total for members
Additional students and caregivers: $5 each

GENERAL INFORMATION
Our homeschool programming primarily takes place outdoors and incorporates agriculture, history, nature, science and/or math.
Classes are season-based and feature discovery through the senses and hands-on activities. Group interaction and discussion encourage a deeper understanding of each subject.
Except for our history-based lessons, classes primarily take place outdoors in rain, snow or shine: participants should be dressed for the day’s weather and farm conditions underfoot.
This is not a drop-off program: caretakers should be prepared to be with the group and are encouraged to participate.
Class size is limited and may be impacted by the class topic; early registration is encouraged.
