What Is Embers & Acorns Forest School?

Embers & Acorns is a nature-based learning co-op designed for children who love to explore, create, and learn outside.

We believe that the natural world is the richest classroom. Nestled in the heart of Mount Vernon, Ohio, our outdoor learning program invites children K to 6th grade to explore, read, write, and grow amidst the beauty of forests and streams.

Children will:

Discover the magic of the outdoors.
Build skills through real-world experiences.
Connect with peers and nature.
Learn by doing.

What We're Learning This Fall

Embers and Acorns Forest School

Embers & Acorns Forest School is a structured program designed to develop strong readers, writers, and thinkers. Our mornings are dedicated to a deep dive into a subject (bees, gardening, maple syrup, apples, etc). The afternoon is dedicated to hands-on reinforcement of what we learned through a project, craft or experience.

Enrollment is seasonal and intentionally small, allowing for individualized instruction and meaningful relationships. We emphasize strong foundations in reading and writing while cultivating curiosity, resilience, and a love of learning.

Our Embers and Acorns Forest School is every Tuesday 11-3.
