“Harvest to Host," workshops are an ongoing seasonal series of educational outdoor classes designed to immerse children in the exciting journey of farm-to-table dining. Starting in October, participants will engage in hands-on activities that teach them about harvesting fresh produce, creating delicious pumpkin-based recipes, and developing essential hosting skills, from table setting, welcoming guests, serving and etiquette. This class encourages creativity, teamwork, and a love for wholesome, home-cooked meals while celebrating the autumn harvest.

This reading workshop is designed for the active and imaginative student who is an early reader or who is ready to “catch up” (and pass up). This workshop is for readers ready to master reading fluency and become an independent, read-to-learn student. We don’t assign grade levels or ages to this class but this is best designed for children who have a knowledge of basic phonics (know all/most of their single letter sounds) and are starting to blend. This workshop will increase skills in blending, fluency and advanced phonics knowledge using proven speech-to-print curriculum and infusing some of our own custom-designed methods curated for the active child with or without learning differences.

Outdoor-nature exploration classes engage children and help them build emotional-regulation techniques, teamwork and problem solving skills; and a growth mindset so they are better prepared to handle conflict and internal and external stressors in life.Best designed for children ages 6-9.We embrace the thinking, feeling and willing aspects of Steiner/ Waldorf inspired education with our own nature-based and emotional wellness emphasis.
