“Take rest; a field that has rested gives a bountiful crop.”
~Ovid

One of the main lessons taught by Farmer Jon here at the Garden School is that rest is a necessary part of the season… the season of life, the season of a garden, the season of education… so many applications ring true.

This seems a fitting concept to ponder on this cold, dreary, mid winter day ✨

One of our goals for 2026 is to provide more opportunities for our community to learn through local experts in the world of plants and gardening. Jana Harris is a North-shore based mycology educator, and her energy and enthusiasm for the world of fungi is absolutely contagious!

We are so excited to partner with in the next few months in the form of lectures and foraging walks! Stay tuned for more info on these events.

“Some places you can only play outside and some places you can only play inside, but here you can do both.”

Our unique space as seen by one of our young volunteers 🤍.

The flow here between indoors and out is one of our greatest assets. The manor house is a companion to our outdoor space. It’s located in the center of our property, between the garden and the clearing. It provides shelter, enables year round community gathering, and holds so much history and potential. It is an essential part of what happens here at The Garden School 🤍

Read our most recent newsletter to get an update about why our beautiful property is all torn up. The GOOD news is that the massive and unexpected project is complete, and we will now be able to put the garden back together. It is at times like these that our community really hold us up with donations. We have survived this hit, but have hefty costs to recoup as we head into the next growing season.

Please consider making a donation to The Garden School this year. It has been a tough battle and we could use some help. A little goes a long way!

Your donations are completely tax exempt since we are 501(c)(3) non-profit school. If you make a donation through Venmo, mark that it is a donation so we can make sure you get a receipt for tax purposes. Visit our website where you can easily access our donation page https://www.thegardenschool.org/donate/

A beautiful testimonial from one of our volunteers 🤍

“What helps foster a deep love of nature is to observe the same spot over and over again: to study it, to watch it change, to notice the massive trees and sunsets and the tiny insects and sprouts. To visit the same space over and over again with the freedom to explore and observe and take it all in. This is exactly what happens at the Garden School.”

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
