Forest and Farm School
All of our Sharingwood Farmstead classes are hands-on, fun, and educational. We learn about various topics of ecology, agriculture, and animal husbandry weekly or bi-weekly in sessions of 3, 4, or 8 weeks depending on the class offering. Classes are for children aged 5-18, but they are also fun for adults! Smaller children aged 2-4, or children who may not want to be in a class setting, can participate in our "Wanderers" classes. To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, we do ask that all participants wear a mask when possible, though we will not require you to do so. We have also organized our classes so that siblings of all ages will be together, thereby keeping individual classes to a minimum number of families while still allowing for many families to participate.
