Bigfoot Food Forest Family Gathering Day & Homeschool Network
We meet every Tuesday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on five acres in New Port Richey Florida.

Join us for a joyful, hands-on day in nature where children and families can learn, explore, create, and connect together at Bigfoot Food Forest.
This meetup is designed for homeschool families, curious parents, and anyone who wants to give their children more time outdoors, more real-world learning, and more meaningful community connection.

Bring your children, your sense of wonder, and a willingness to get a little soil on your hands. Families will experience nature-based learning through gardening, food forest exploration, permaculture projects, animal encounters, and simple outdoor life skills that help children grow in confidence, curiosity, and care for the living world.

This is a relaxed, welcoming space for families whether they homeschool, unschool, micro-school, or simply want to supplement childhood with something real and regenerative. Children learn best when they can move, observe, ask questions, and participate in meaningful work alongside trusted adults, and that is exactly the spirit of these gatherings.

Parents can connect with like-minded families, enjoy fresh air and open space, and know their children are spending time in an environment that supports healthy development, creativity, cooperation, and a deeper relationship with nature.
Our goal is simple: help families reclaim childhood through outdoor learning, practical skills, and community rooted in care for the land and each other.

What Families Can Expect

  • Hands-on gardening and food forest activities.
  • Nature exploration and outdoor learning.
  • Simple permaculture and life-skill experiences.
  • Community connection for parents and children.
  • A playful, peaceful atmosphere that encourages curiosity and confidence.

Whether your child is homeschooled or not, they are welcome here.
Come as you are, bring your kids, and join us in giving them something every child deserves: time in nature, freedom to learn, and the joy of growing up connected to life.
