Good
Earth
Good Earth Learning Center provides an educational opportunity for forest learning with developmentally appropriate curriculum focused on connecting with nature and play. We follow a forest kindergarten model, student led and project based with most of our learning time spent outdoors immersed in nature.
Young people who have the chance to dig in a garden, learn about nutrition, agriculture and the natural world, and have the opportunity to taste fresh foods, are more likely to eat these healthy foods when made available to them at home.
