In nature we never see anything isolated, but everything in connection with something else which is before it, beside it, under it and over it.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
EXPERIENCE
WILD ROSE FARM
Wild Rose Farm connects children to the earth and each other. We believe that outside is the best place to be.
To play, to learn and to grow. Education through farm and forest.
OUR VISION
Playing and Learning. Immersed
We started Wild Rose Farm with an intention. To bring children into nature through farm and forest. To gently hold them and encourage their sense of wonder, curiosity, their natural playfulness and to learn from each other. Wild Rose is a unique program where children are encouraged to use all their senses in all seasons. At Wild Rose Farm the children experience the reverence for their environment in a playful spirit.
OURÂ PEOPLE
Connecting and Caring
We come together from diverse backgrounds and bring rich experiences to build a program that empowers, nourishes, and inspires children to play and learn on the farm and in nature.
LINCOLN GEIGER
Biodynamic Farmer, Founder of Wildrose Farm, Teacher
Lincoln Geiger is founder of Wildrose Farm and its parent organization, Gaia Education Outreach (GEO) Institute. He grew up in rural southern Sweden, where the land with its ancient roots were still alive in its people. He started farming at the age of 18, inspired by the ways of his village and the vibrant Swedish BioDynamic movement, which he joined for a life dedicated for a renewal of agriculture. He inspired and created the Swedish collective Mother Earth with his brother Chris where he worked as gardener, farmer and miller for seven years. In 1979 he immigrated to Temple, New Hampshire where he started a small farm, and in 1986 co-founded the Temple-Wilton Community Farm (TWCF) which helped spark the idea of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) in the US. Working there with the dairy cows, the pastures and hay lands for over 30 years, he always invited children as well as adults to join him in the work on the farm. Now working as the Director and Farmer/Educator of Wild Rose Farm NH/Gaia Education Outreach (GEO) Institute, he shares with the children knowledge and stories of his beloved farm, fields and forests every day.
