Community Engagement

Our community engagement opportunities rest on the fundamental belief that learning is most impactful when rooted in experiential exploration within the living classroom of our working farm and protected forest. We embrace the concept that learning is a collective endeavor, encouraging interaction, dialogue, and community building among participants. Acknowledging the uniqueness each participant brings to our programs, we view everyone as both learners and teachers.

Our programs deliver ideas and activities that can seamlessly transfer to our individual and community lives, ensuring that the lessons learned within our living classroom resonate in meaningful ways beyond the farm and forest.

Accessibility

In order to ensure access to our programs, our Community Access Program was created to support free programs or individual participation scholarships.
