SALT LAKE HOME EDUCATORS

We had a great meeting learning about all the neat ways to bring your homeschool alive with learning. Did you know there are those amongst us who keep bees? In the city? Also raising chickens or growing big backyard gardens (instead of lawns)? Kids can learn first-hand about nutrition, life-cycles and hard work!  Thanks Julie LaTendresse and Julie Van der Wekken for all of your inspiring Urban Homesteading ideas!  Check out these Local Resources:
