Erdkinder

Our Farm . . .

We believe the farm gives unity, purpose and meaning to our community. It is an integral part of our curriculum and also provides practical life experience in critical thinking and problem solving. Work with the animals and the land encourages the adolescents to cultivate a sense of empathy and think critically about the sustainable practices that impact our world.  Their work also promotes perseverance and daily habits of care for the environment. This responsibility fosters an awareness of the part they play in the well being of the greater community.
