Wandering Roots: A Learning Adventure

Anchorage folks!

Imagine a place where people of all ages come together to learn, share, create, and grow—a secular, cooperative learning model rooted in curiosity, connection, and community care.

Whether you're a dreamer, a doer, or simply someone who wants to show up and be part of something meaningful, your presence matters.

What does it take to bring something amazing into the world?

This vision grows from the energy and interest of those who feel called to participate. That’s what fuels Amy and really, all of us. If this sparks something in you, start by signing up for a gathering, emailing Amy, joining a meetup at Boyer’s Orchard on Wednesdays from 5 to 7.

Learning Opportunities

Nature-Based Meetups – Explore forests, creeks, and meadows while learning about the land. (Foraging, tracking skills, natural science, nature journaling, etc.)

Artist Experiences – Get creative with local artists through painting, sculpture, music, and more.

Hands-On Science – Engage in interactive experiments and STEM activities, learn from local scientists.

Special Celebrations – Gather for meaningful community traditions honoring Earth Day and May Day!

Pricing & Registration

This is a developing vision, and I'm still exploring how the exchange for organizing and leading field trips will take shape. I imagine something like a punch card system or a simple membership model—something that makes participation easy and sustainable for everyone involved.

Right now, I’m gathering interest to see what’s possible. If enough families feel excited and committed, we can co-create a rhythm that works for all of us. Charging for individual meetups isn’t the long-term plan—I’d much rather build a supportive container where families can show up consistently and we all know what to expect.

This is just the beginning. If you're interested in joining, contributing ideas, or helping shape what Wandering Roots becomes, I’d love to hear from you.

Join the Interest List below! I’ll finalize the details once enough parents express interest.
