Wright-Locke Farm – Adult Education Program

Wright-Locke Farm’s education programs for teens and adults are a great way to learn practical skills related to healthy living, small-scale agriculture, and the wonders of nature. All workshops take place on the Farm, 78 Ridge Street in Winchester, or at Saint Eulalia’s Parish (50 Ridge Street- right next door) and are open to individuals ages 14+ unless stated otherwise. Instructors are needed for future workshops. They are always seeking out local experts to lead workshops centered on the following subjects:

backyard farm animal or beneficial insect care
organic home gardening (edible and ornamental)
soil health and composting
herbalism
flower arranging
birdwatching
foraging (especially mushrooms)
culinary skills or healthy cooking techniques
natural fiber and related crafts (especially wool)
nutrition and health
food preservation (especially pressure canning, cheese making, meat curing, and home brewing)
outdoor fitness
art and photography

If you or someone you know might be interested in leading an adult workshop, please contact the Education Director, rcarter@wlfarm.org. Please mention your typical rate for a 2-3 hour workshop (with or without material cost estimates), or if you are willing to present as a volunteer. Workshop themes not mentioned above but relevant to our work are open for consideration.
