Our mission for Walking in Wellness is to provide a peaceful, nature-based, and interactive learning environment that empowers youth to walk in wellness as they become critical thinkers, mindful of themselves and the world around them, and responsible citizens. Both personal and environmental wellness are taught through a carefully crafted curriculum while we take on reviving old-fashioned skills.
Our curriculum is focused on developing skills for personal and environmental wellness through mindfulness activities, outdoor immersion, and reviving old-fashioned skills. The daily rhythm will consist of a morning circle (songs, stretches/exercise, weather observation), snack, mindfulness lesson, farm chores, hiking, play, lunch, read-aloud, skill development, hike back, and afternoon reflection. Victoria is certified to teach Mindfulness and curates many lessons to relate the farm learning objective of the day.
The 2025-2026 school year offers classes on Tuesday and Thursdays as follows:
Tuesdays:
🌱 Seedlings (3-4 years old) | 9:00 AM - 1 PM (Optional 2:30 PM Departure)
🌿 Saplings (5-7 years old) | 9:00 AM - 2:30 PM
Wednesdays:
🌰 Adventuring Acorns (6 months - 3 years old) | A 6-week class 9:45-12 (Caregiver involvement required)
Thursdays:
🌱 Seedlings (3-4 years old) | 9:00 AM - 1 PM (Optional 2:30 PM Departure)
🌿 Saplings (5-7 years old) | 9:00 AM - 2:30 PM
🌳 Oaks (8-12 years old) | 9:00 AM - 2:30 PM
School runs August-May with a long winter break & a spring break March 24-26.
Each semester is broken up into two 8-week long unit studies that revive a different old-fashioned skill. Next year, we’re excited to offering family-friendly field trips in addition to our school day gatherings for each unit study!
The 2025-2026 school year is open to children as young as 6 months and goes up to 12-years-old (based on age September 1, 2025). There is a 1:6 teacher to child ratio with the Seedlings (3-4yo), a 1:7 ratio for Saplings (5-7yo) and 1:10 teacher to child ratio with the Oaks (8-12yo). Adventuring Acorns is a caregiver-child class for 6-months-3-years. We hope to have a teen program in the future!
All enrollments are done through Sawyer (see below). A monthly payment option is available through Sawyer!
Note: the cost on Sawyer is labeled as "semester" but that is the full school year cost that can be broken up into 8 monthly installments.
While personal & environmental wellness will always be at the heart of Walking in Wellness, unit study will also focus on reviving an old-fashioned skill!
Medicine Making: August-September
Wellness toolbox…first aid kit…call it what you will! This set of sessions is focused on creating healing remedies with wild-grown and harvested herbs. We will infuse medicinal oil, make a salve, brew several herbal teas, and infuse herbs into a glycerite. Historical uses of herbs are shared with fun stories! All ingredients used for the medicines are either foraged for on the property or handpicked in the garden!
Harvest & Sharing the Bounty: October-November
Fall is harvest time! We will harvest and learn how to cure certain plants, prepare others for winter, preserve the harvest, plant garlic for spring, and more. Most importantly, we share the bounty and donate many meals to local families hosting children in foster care. Throughout the weeks, we will harvest and prepare crops to make a big vat of soup with many ingredients down to the spices from the garden. This entails multiple harvest methods, curing, washing, peeling, chopping, fermenting, and freezing everything to be ready for coming together feast day! The kids will taste test our soup at school and decide on any adjustments needed before we make the soup thats donated.
Making & Mending: February-March
In our winter months, we slow down to make and mend. Our 2026 theme within this topic is increasing biodiversity on the homestead. Creating new habitats such as bat boxes, bug hotels, birdhouses and learning how those can benefit the farm will fill our time for this unit as well as prepping for spring planting!
Raising Animals! April-May
Spring has sprung! Chickens are hatching; goats and rabbits are birthing! There’s so much to see! We are still determining which animal we will focus on raising from hatch/birth for 2026. Whichever animal we focus on, children will learn how to be gentle, how to care for the animal holistically, support its natural way of life, learn how the animals benefits our regenerative system, and learn compassion for the more-than-human world!
