What is the Earthworm Learning Center?
What is the Earthworm Learning Center?
A community center for nature-based education.
A sanctuary for the healing and strengthening of our bodies, minds and relationships, including reciprocal and harmonious participation with the more-than-human world.
This is a place in which we become receptive, we rejoice to listen and hear that inner voice. A place where our overflowing garden, orchard, clear waters and bird songs can be enjoyed. Where inner flames are kindled and hearth fires are sparked and blown into life by our own hands. We are not here just to teach kids "how it is", we are learning alongside and from them: how life can be. We are not here to tell our youth how to think, we're interested in how and what they think. We're here to guide them into clarifying and deepening into their passions, and support them in developing their interests into skills.
This is a space in which God's Children (of all ages) are held in reverence, with deep care and respect for each one's unique perspective, wisdom, unfurling genius and creativity. Where little ones are free and safe to wander and wonder, to play and sing, to stay connected and resourceful, to discover and declarify what is theirs to do, to remind us how to imagine and live into a glorious future in a miraculous world.
This is a place in which we gather together and remind each other how to stay curious... how to nourish our soil and ourselves and the creatures around us, as well as how to build cozy healing spaces with natural, local materials—by doing it.
We follow love, we stay in love. We use our hands to land in to the prayers of our hearts, for the next generations and for the enjoyment of the generous journey happening now.
This beloved space we (Jimily and Sofia Evergreen) call home is filling us with so much exuberant energy and propelling us every day to keep building, planting, setting the space for what is coming through.
Our center is located in a bright and cozy renovated barn with a radiant earthen floor and community kitchen, tucked in to the forest behind our home, beside a yurt for circling up amidst a circle of elder trees.

Jimi and Emily (Jimily) are the stewards of this serene seven acres of conservation-zoned land up on a hill in Dover, Pennsylvania.
We have 16 cozy beds and many quiet camping spots for overnight experiences. Here are some of the things we offer:
Offerings that will be guided by Em and Jimi on a regular basis. We offer all of these by donation, with full faith in the overflow.
Classes and immersive experiences for all ages, as well as clubs and workshops for specific age groups. This will be done in collaboration with guest teachers, leaders and guides.
Retreats with sliding scale fees to cover the costs of providing local, fresh food for all, and remuneration for our collaborators.
We are holding and co-creating the beautiful reality we want to live in, for and with each other, from and with the omnipotent power of LOVE. Let's grow, together.
