Waldorf Without Walls

The seeds of Spring take root and flourish with the warmth of friends and laughter… come with your family to nourish your homeschool traditions. Our 65 acre farm is a relaxed and comfortable environment in which to meet other homeschooling families, be inspired, and share your wisdom with new friends… Bring the whole family!!!! We are Waldorf inspired while incorporating other complementary philosophies.
