Now introducing, Wild By Design: Homeschool Series, a monthly educational program designed especially for homeschool families and groups! Meeting on the first Friday of each month, this series will combine indoor and outdoor learning experiences that connect students with nature and give families the opportunity to connect with other homeschoolers, build community, and share in the joy of learning together.

Each month offers a different program (recommended ages denoted) with engaging lessons, live animal encounters, and immersive activities that align with educational standards. Children will also enjoy a short snack break (please bring your own snack).

Ages: 5 and up (children under 5 attend free with a sibling)

Cost: $20 per child, per session

Capacity: 20 students maximum

Registration: Online only! Spots must be reserved in advance

For detailed program descriptions, please visit the Wild by Design: Build a Field Trip main page.

You can book your trip through the calendar at the bottom of the page. Email our Program Coordinator, Lindsey Homa, at programs@hobesoundnaturecenter.org with questions and/or additional information.

*One of our top priorities is to ensure the welfare and well-being of our teaching animals. Though we will do our best to ensure designated teaching animals are included in relevant programs, we cannot guarantee their involvement.
