The Compass program is based on a forest school ideology where Nature provides an infinite amount of stimulation but at the same time it is deeply nourishing & soothing. We aim to foster a connection to Nature, Community & Oneself in a communal village like setting. We will build, explore, breathe & experience as well as share ideas, feelings & skills. Learning will happen on its own within this format. From a technical side of things this program will include survival skills; both in the wild & in our modern world, homesteading, foraging, gardening & herbalism as well as social emotional learning , STEM based activities weaved with ancient wisdom & environmentalism.
The entire program takes place on our 215-acre historic farm property , where we have a designated educational greenhouse space serving as shelter from rain or snow, farm animals, playground, educational gardens and a great big open lawn, all surrounded by woods, wetlands, farm fields, and diverse habitats. There is also a farmhouse & a farm store on premises.
