Nature Farm School @
Hamilton Pool Farms

Radical Regenerative Farming & Education

Farm School Program @ Hamilton Pool Farms

We gather on our beautiful 48-acre Hill Country property.  Using curriculum influenced by Wilderness Awareness Schools, Waldorf & Montessori Education, and the Garden-Based Learning Movement, we teach nature, gardening & regenerative farming skills on our organic, regenerative, permaculture, biodynamic veggie & medicinal herb farm.   

Each farm school day consists of group games, circle time, farm chores working with the farmers, gardening or farming activities, time with our seasonal farm animals, nature activities, art, stories, homestead skills, wilderness exploration, food preparation, basket making, knife safety & carving, fire safety & building, art, music, and so much more. Our land is a living classroom for kids to explore, experience, and connect with the fascinating natural diversity found in nature & on a working farm.

During our hot months, we incorporate water play into our day and spend plenty of time in the shade under our giant oak & cedar elm trees.  Hydration is a priority and we play many fun hydration games throughout the day
