by St. Francis of the Woods

Prairiewood offers year-round Forest School enrichment classes for ages 2-17, full of playful, inquiry-led immersion opportunities for children and youth to connect with community, personal creativity, and the natural world. Each class session starts at Prairiewood, our Outdoor Classroom, and may also involve time feeding chickens, planting wildflowers, harvesting in the garden, and exploring our forested trails.
