Homeschool Program

Hands-on science. Outdoor learning. Community connection.

MOSS Homeschool Programs offer enriching, science-based experiences for homeschool families seeking dynamic outdoor education. Designed for learners grades K-6, our programs blend inquiry-based exploration with environmental science, fostering curiosity, critical thinking, and a deep connection to the natural world. Classes are led by professional outdoor educators and include seasonal themes, field investigations, and collaborative projects — all while building community among local homeschooling families.
