The Farm School
Sentinel Elm Farm
488 Moore Hill Road
Athol, MA 01331
978.249.9944

Children as well as adults can take part in learning what it takes to be stewards of the earth.

Multi-day residential school-year and summer programs for the over 1,500 young people and their teachers, a year-long program to train adults in practical sustainable agriculture, and an on-site one-room middle school.

Young people work the land and take home the cultural history, vital experience, and personal identity that farms nurture. Teachers work alongside their students and leave with new insights into their craft and children they teach. Adults learn to farm and carry essential knowledge from one community to the next.
