Hillsdale Homestead

Character

We believe that the work of cultivating the soil and tending animals builds responsibility, patience, confidence, and humility.

Agricultural Skills

Working on the homestead provides students with a unique opportunity to learn hands-on practical skills that will help them later in life as home and property owners.

Ways To Get Involved:

  • Sign up for weekly chore shifts in the mornings or evening to help take care of the chickens and vegetables

  • Attend a Shop Day on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons with with small repair and construction projects
