Workshops and Educational Outreach

Homestead School

Catch the wave into the future- Sustainable, Self-Sufficient Life skills are increasingly in demand, on a personal and on a community level. Garden supply companies, seed companies, nurseries are all reporting record activity and interest as folks become awakened to the new reality. Our world daily becomes less certain and less secure. But you can do something about it. We can all work to re-skill ourselves with the knowledge that was commonplace in our grandparent’s world, but which has not, until now, been necessary in our daily lives.

Here at Green Desert Eco Farm, we have always been excited about sharing our experience and knowledge with others, and now we are taking the next step. Beginning this month, we will offer a regular Course Schedule of classes and workshops focusing on self sufficient living – a Homestead University where you can come and learn a variety of important and useful skills, and have lots of fun doing it.

Just like with the Victory Gardens of the past, our communities and individuals are able to rise up from the corporate-driven, consumerist complacency to a place of resilience and sustainable self-sufficiency and face together our uncertain future.  We can help you to accomplish more and to be more. So come out to the farm for a class or two (or all of them) and lets stride positively forward!
