A four-season experience for students and guests
4 days with each being over an hour per visit
Because this program follows the rhythms of the land rather than a fixed calendar, exact dates for each seasonal gathering are set closer to the time — typically announced about a month ahead.
Philosophy & Framing
This program is built on a core conviction shared with the Wild Farm Alliance: a farm is not separate from the wild landscape around it — it's part of it. Every season, participants will practice farming with ecological processes (pollinators, predator-prey balance, soil biology, water cycles, native habitat) rather than fighting them with inputs and brute force.
Two threads run through all four seasons:
1. Ecological literacy — understanding the farm as a living system nested inside a wild one.
2. Seed sovereignty — building a working seed library, season by season, crop by crop, so the farm's genetics (and the knowledge of how to steward them) stay in the community's hands.
