The Feast of Wonders
To all Charlotte Mason Homeschooling Mamas in Greenwich and surrounding areas!
Starting on Tuesday, May 12th 2026, we are beginning a local gathering for families who are currently using—or are genuinely interested in—the Charlotte Mason philosophy of education and who desire to build community around a shared commitment to Christ and His Word.
The Feast of Wonders is a monthly time set apart for Mothers and children to come together and share in a “living education” through Nature study, Poetry, Music, Art, and focus on the Lord and Scripture. This gathering is especially suited for children ages 6 and under, though older siblings are welcome to join and enjoy the feast.
The purpose of this gathering is to cultivate and strengthen a Charlotte Mason community in our area—one marked by simplicity, beauty, and a shared commitment to this way of learning, and a like-minded community of families who seek to order their homes, education, and lives in submission to Scripture and a living faith in Christ.
Our afternoons will include a brief Chapel gathering for prayer, hymns and a short reading of the Scriptures. A nature walk to a nearby park for observation, journaling and snacks, and a gentle indoor time of picture study, music appreciation, poetry, and living book readings.
Every Month we will focus on a specific theme. The month of May will be "flowers".
Location: Greenwich - CT.
- Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
- Frequency: Monthly
(Possibly transition to a Bi-weekly/Weekly Co-OP in the Fall/New Year)
If you are a Charlotte Mason family—or are sincerely interested in learning more about this approach—we would be glad to connect with you.

The Fox Shire
Welcome to the Fox Shire!
We are a joyful community of homeschooling families gathered under the gentle guidance of Charlotte Mason’s educational philosophy. At the Fox Shire, we believe education is an atmosphere, a discipline, and a life—a feast of living ideas spread abundantly before our children.
Together we:
• Build true community — where families encourage one another, children form lasting friendships, and mothers find fellowship and support.
• Nourish minds with living books and ideas — choosing literature that is alive with beauty, truth, and goodness rather than dry textbooks, so that children form real relationships with knowledge.
• Spread the feast — offering a rich, generous curriculum that includes great literature, history, science, nature study, art, music, poetry, and more. Each child assimilates what they can, growing in wonder and wisdom at their own pace.
• Embrace riches-based education — delighting in the “riches” of life: beautiful books, fine art, inspiring music, the outdoors, handicrafts, and the cultivation of good habits of mind and heart.
We host a weekly Riches Co-op where children gather to enjoy:
• Picture study
• Composer study
• Handicrafts
• Literature
• Nature study and journaling
• Recitation
• Poetry
• And scouting
These sessions bring the riches to life in a shared, delightful way—through observation, creation, narration, and exploration outdoors.
We also offer a Mothers’ Book Club where we read and discuss both Charlotte Mason’s own writings and other nourishing books to strengthen our vision, refresh our spirits, and grow alongside one another as educators and mothers.

Budding Naturalists: A Charlotte Mason Natural History Club
Budding Naturalists will be based on the Charlotte Mason method of nature study.
Most of our gatherings will be focused on observation and object lessons about special studies, nature walks, and “field work” activities Charlotte speaks of in Volume 1, such as sightseeing, picture painting, bird stalking, out-of-doors geography, etc.
We will also incorporate singing a hymn or folk song, poetry or recitation time, and sharing about conservation ideas. Many of our gatherings will include quiet/reflective observation, nature journal time, group narration time, masterly inactivity or nature games, and hopefully some wildcrafting and nature projects.
This club is just as much for the parent/educator as it is for the children, and there is the expectation that parents will fully participate and enjoy learning alongside the children, and/or incorporate nature study into the rhythm of their lives and homeschool.
For 1st-8th grade, meeting about monthly on Thursday afternoon. Minimal cost, plus required supplies. Registration each summer with club meetings throughout the school year.
High schoolers should reach out to learn about helping lead Budding Naturalists through the Junior Naturalist program.
