Stuffy Day in Mrs. Flewelling’s 2nd grade class!


Mrs. Verney’s Class spent time in the greenhouse with Ms. Hedda. They learned about garden insects and studied them with magnifying glasses, learned about the life cycle of a Monarch Butterfly and even got to see a caterpillar turn into a chrysalis.

Our third graders enjoyed a leisurely ride on the Damariscotta River aboard the River Tripper.







Third graders had a great first lesson at FARMS. They made tomatillo salsa, crispy corn chips, baked apples, and roasted vegetables. The roasted leeks were a big hit!

Dear Middle School families,
Hearty Roots is thrilled to partner with GSB to offer an 8 week long outing club right on site after the school day, open to all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.
Our programming is unique, it’s intentionally small scale with high caliber staff, and based on primitive skills and emotional wellness. It’s also sure to be tons of outdoor fun this fall!
We operate on a sliding fee scale so that all families can have access to our offerings. Find your school on the website link shared below. Please select a ‘code’ from the list of options that suits your family’s budget most comfortably, and enter that in before proceeding to payment.
Learn more and sign your child up right on our website: https://www.heartyroots.org/outing-clubs
