More than a Place, an Idea

We use the power of place in pursuit of a vision–an idea

Our transformative educational programs help inspire educators and students to realize a sustainable future, one where everyone can thrive. We do this work with a global network of collaborators in education, sustainability, and food systems.

    Our Cheddar & Maple Syrup

    Crafted on our farm campus, using raw milk from our pasture-raised Brown Swiss cows, and fresh sap from our sugarbush, our products help tell the story of what sustainable food systems can look like.

Institute for Sustainable Schools Wordmark

Our Institute for Sustainable Schools was formed in 2021 as a home to professional learning for educators, a culmination of fifty years of service to teachers and schools. With our programs and resources, you'll tap into the power of education for sustainability and learn to use your place as an extension of the classroom.
