My project is to offer small life skills classes here at my farm on cooking, foraging, mending, basic sewing, repairing and reusing materials that would otherwise be discarded. I will offer classes to children ages 5-12 (divided from age 5-8, 9-12) where I will teach skills such as using kitchen knives, identifying and using herbs, foraging (safe) edible local plants and berries to use in our cooking or to make tea, replacing buttons, mending torn seams, patching holes, braiding rugs, making candles. My goal is to give children the tools and skills they need to take these skills home and put them to use.
