Bioregionalism, Resilience & Active Hope

Price not
available

with Franklin County Adult Education

Calendar May 5, 2024

In the course, offered in partnership with Antioch University, we will explore themes of just transition, downshift, localization, and resiliency through readings, discussion, and most importantly, embodied experience. You will carve a spoon, plant seeds, inoculate mushrooms, tend a woodland, feast upon wild and cultivated local foods, sharpen a knife, compost everything, and build your own rocket stove. Depart with practical and philosophical frameworks to create a small piece of “the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible” (Charles Eisenstein).  Field study trip dates are May 5-9, 2024. There will be one pre-trip prep meeting on April 23 (meeting via zoom) and will offer logistical travel details, relevant course content, and background information. 

 Cost: $500 - $1,000 with scholarships available through the Office of Continuing Education (you do not need to be a student at Antioch to receive a scholarship)
