Pioneering for the Modern Day

Reclaim the forgotten wisdom passed down through generations. In an age dominated by Wi-Fi, Google searches, and reality TV, we’ve drifted away from the essential knowledge of our ancestors. This monthly class aims to restore that connection. We’ll cover everything from soil care for thriving gardens to essential survival skills, food preparation, and even making your own soap and natural household cleaners. Join us in rediscovering these timeless skills!

Sign up required, and the deadline is 2 weeks prior to each event. For safety reasons, this series is not intended for children.
