Let’s talk financial exchange & commitment.

Our intention is to make this deep-dive, hands-on immersion financially accessible, while also making the numbers work on our end (covering materials, Ben & Dane's time & expertise, while also cultivating a yield for the land.)

We recognize these are difficult times for many & a lot of people have faced disruptions to their stability & income over the past few years. We are open to working with you & discuss potential scholarships and/or payment plans.
Please know however, we hold a "no drama" boundary around following through on commitments once agreements are made.

We are making spaces available for up to 3 BIPOC & other economically disadvantaged folks at significantly reduced rates. Please let us know below if this applies to you. If you are in a position to contribute additional funds to support more scholarships for this program, we'd be excited to hear from you.

Please acknowledge that you've read & understand the following:

- The prices are what they are. We are happy to show you how we came to the these numbers with you if you are interested.

- There are no refunds. Once you have signed the contract & sent your deposit / tuition, you're in. In an emergency, your spot may be transferrable to another student *if* they are the right fit.

- 100% of tuition is due before the first class of each season, depending on which level you choose.

- There will be no pro-rating if you miss a class. (There will be opportunities to make up missed workdays.)

If there is anything about your financial situation we need to know before entering into a commitment with you, please describe anything relevant here.

What type of commitment do you see yourself making?

"ALL IN" = All 9 months, all 3 seasons (30 classes + 3 weekend immersions)

What is your schedule like?

The immersion will likely be held on Thursdays.
Would that work for you? If not, what days will you have available?
*
Once we receive your application, the next step will be to schedule an interview with Ben & Dane (your instructors) and Michael Numinous (steward of the Hawk & Hawthorne).

Would you prefer a phone call or a video interview?
