Hands-on Practical Classes

For more than a decade we offered practical hands-on skills building classes for earth-centred living while running an urban homestead called Little City Farm in Kitchener. 

FIELD & FOREST FARM is a new rural farmstead where we are excited to continue to practice these skills for regenerative living:

• building with local natural materials (e.g. cob, strawbale)
• growing native, heirloom and permaculture plants
• seed saving
• pollinator gardening
• no-till regenerative human-scale agriculture
• food preservation, fermentation, canning
• foraging for wild edibles & medicinal herbs
• growing & using herbal plants for food & medicine
• soap making & herbal healing remedies
• preparing meals from real whole ingredients
• sourdough & baking in an outdoor wood-fired oven
• keeping chickens & bees & vermicomposting (worms)
• mending, sewing, knitting & other hand skills
• living simply within your means
• cultivating a slowed-down hands-on life
• involving children on the homestead!
