This is an active playgroup of homeschoolers, unschoolers, life learners, etc. We have a little bit of every home education "style" and are a wonderfully eclectic bunch. We are not a religion-oriented group but are certainly all-inclusive.

We get together for regular park days each week and sometimes field trips or other activities. We do not have any sort of mandates or rules except that some regular participation is expected. Most of the kids and parents have and are looking to form long-lasting friendships.

The majority of the group are very intense about respecting children and gentle parenting. On the whole, we like our kids, like each other’s kids and enjoy spending time together.
