Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Call 215-225-7830 or email info@villagearts.org to ask about the next Philly Earth farm class or a Village Youth studio, including ages and start dates..
What to expect
Philly Earth classes run after school and in summer for ages 9 to 19. Students learn composting, companion planting, and simple builds such as rocket stoves and rainwater collection, and they can earn sustainability badges. The site does not say how long a class lasts or what it costs, so call the office first.
Tips for your first visit
- Call the office on a weekday between 10 am and 5 pm, since those are the listed office hours.
- Ask about the age range and the start date, since the farm page lists ages 9 to 19 and no start date.
- The farm classes are taught on the teaching farm on the Village campus at 2544 Germantown Ave.
Newcomer welcome
Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The youth pages name the studios and farm classes and give office hours and a phone line, but describe no enrollment steps. The only way in is to call or email, so the way in is unclear..
