Our first school is Growing Wild Forest School, (www.GrowingWildForetSchool.org), started in December 2016. This five-day-a-week, half-day school meets year-round in thee heart of West Asheville. Families can choose which days of the week they'd like to enroll. We're offering nine weeks of Summer Camp in 2025.
Additionally, we offer an afternoon program, Acorn Adventures - an add-on option for GWFS students OR a more flexible, later-in-the-day option for families who want to try the forest way. Also on the horizon? A weekly Mommy & Me program for families with children younger than 3, monthly adult programs, community education events, and teacher trainings. We also plan to establish more forest schools in the WNC region. Join our program today if you're inspired to work on a diverse array of projects and bring rooted education to families across WNC.
