The Faithful Feast – A Charlotte Mason Co-op

We meet on a bi-weekly basis during the school year. Meetings are an informal, low-stress opportunity for mothers and children to build community while practicing a Charlotte Mason education. Activities may include recitation, learning a folk song, doing a picture study, drawing in a nature journal, and working on handicrafts together. We also study Latin and Spanish together. Activities are designed to interest and accommodate students from a variety of ages, including younger siblings.

Sophia Society

We are the Sophia Society for the Convivial Study of Pedagogy (with Tea). This book discussion group is for the classical Charlotte Mason mother who takes her work seriously and herself lightly.

We invite you to join us in reading and discussing "Know and Tell: The Art of Narration." Author and homeschool mother Karen Glass shares an immensely practical survey of Mason’s central educative method. Amply illustrated by real-life narrations from students of all ages and abilities, as well as helpful charts and lists, this book is both a wonderful introduction and an invigorating review, to get us ready for a new school year.

May 2025: Chapters 1-5
