Earthroots inspires life-long dedication to environmental stewardship & community through deep nature connection mentoring.?In our creative learning environments, Earthroots participants gain a better understanding of how all of life is connected. They experience how our actions influence the world around us. With this understanding, we hope that individuals then make choices in their daily lives to improve the health of the earth, themselves and each other.
Programs:
We offer classes, workshops & lectures year-round for toddlers, homeschoolers, teens, adults, private and public schools, scout groups and summer camps. Outdoor classrooms include local organic farms, gardens, wilderness parks, green kitchens, beaches, and creeks. These programs are an exploration of our natural world and extend into our connection with all things. Homeschool based Orange County programs meet at new locations each week, ranging from San Clemente to Huntington Beach and east into the Santa Ana Mountains. Earthroots travels to schools for on campus Ecoliteracy Programs and invites groups for field trips to our 39 acre wilderness & agriculture site in Silverado Canyon.
