What we offer on a Monday
A drop off session from 10-2pm where we learn to care for the animals, grow food and look after the environment. You are welcome to stay for the duration of the first session and subsequent sessions until your child feels confident and safe in their surroundings. Your first session is booked as an individual taster session to ensure that your child is happy and that we are suited to their needs prior to booking a 4-week block or 2-week block. The first taster session is £30 followed by subsequent sessions at £40. 
Please fill in our home-ed request session form below and we will be in touch soon. Alternatively, you can reach out to us on our facebook page with any questions.

About Us
We became friends over 15 years ago sharing a passion for horticulture, animal care, sustainability, and alternative living. As our lives developed we became moms, with Marie having 2 children both neurodiverse, 1 of which is home-educated. I (Laura) am a mom of a son who is neurodiverse and has struggled with school structure. Recently I decided to share of the land I own and offer home education sessions in which we can share our knowledge and expertise.

 
Our background
Marie is a qualified registered mental health nurse and has experience working in CAMHS and now works in adult mental health services. Previously she worked for autism west midlands for over 10 years. Marie has been home educating for 2 years and it has been life changing. 
Laura is a qualified secondary school teacher who specialises in teaching food and nutrition, and product design, including wood work, plastic and metal work. She has been horse riding for over 30 years and has kept animals for 10 years @the land.

​

Our aim is to pass on our passion for growing food, tendering land, looking after animals, sustainability, the environment, cooking and education to others.
