“Few things get my children out of bed in the morning quickly: Christmas, birthdays and the FarmTEK Immersion! Bridgette’s kindness and enthusiasm for the roots of our humanness is contagious. The experience has truly transformed our lives, brought out the best in us and helped us realize the true gifts of the earth.”

BEST day ever! My favorite parts was the farm and wild edibles soup we made and cooked over the fire.

“FarmTEK Immersions are an opportunity to slow down and explore meaningful work. The kids that attend learn in-depth interpersonal skills that many will never know. It empowers kids to ask questions, brainstorm together and see what works through hands-on farm experience. They walk away competent in the basics of sustainable agriculture and all aspects of homesteading. Whether they will one day build a tiny house, plant a garden, grow an off-grid farm or none of the above, they take away amazing memories, friendships and a diverse skill set that will guide them on their life journeys.”
