Description

Students will explore bush-crafting, fiber art, and other nature-based life skills to become a seasoned naturalist. Can you thrive for one day in the wild? This is the ideal opportunity for youth to pursue nature play with peers and casually learn in Atlanta's old growth forest. This pilot homeschool program meshes nature, arts, and self-sufficiency with casual STEM applications. We provide a student-driven learning style that centers around students' interests.
