We're a cooperative skill-sharing group, focused on the outdoors. We tend to meet at local parks, farms, and town lands. Help us to build out our fall schedule by volunteering to offer teach something you know how to do -- or just faciliate at group investigation into a topic!
Who it's for
- Homeschoolers (ages 6+) and their families
- Teens & adults who want to learn or share skills
- Anyone excited about nature, building, and resilience
Example projects
- Cold frames & hoop houses for winter gardening
- Rainwater capture & off‑grid water pumps
- Garden carts & simple outdoor fixtures
- Temperature monitors for greenhouses & freezers
- Small‑scale solar power & charging
