Programs & Education
At Wind Whistle Farm & Nature Education Centre, learning is hands-on, rooted in nature, and designed to inspire curiosity. Our programs connect people of all ages to the land, offering meaningful ways to experience sustainable farming, ecological living, and community.
Workshops & Tours
We offer seasonal workshops and guided tours that bring regenerative farming and ecology to life. Participants get practical skills and insights they can take home and apply in their own gardens or communities. Past and upcoming sessions include:
-
Mushroom Log Inoculation – learn to cultivate gourmet mushrooms on hardwood logs.
-
Food Forest Design – explore how to create edible, self-sustaining landscapes.
-
Composting & Soil Health – discover the foundations of thriving ecosystems.
-
Guided Nature Walks – experience the biodiversity of the farm’s meadows, wetlands, and woodlands.
Our workshops are perfect for curious individuals, families, and groups who want to deepen their connection with the natural world.
WorkAway & WWOOF Volunteer Opportunities
We welcome WorkAway and WWOOF volunteers who want to exchange their time and energy for immersive learning experiences. Volunteers help with seasonal farm projects such as planting, harvesting, animal care, and eco-building, while gaining hands-on skills in sustainable agriculture.
