Kroka Sustainability Outreach
Program For Your School
By Chris and Ashirah Knapp
We are putting together an outreach program focused
on sustainability. The program’s goal is to get people
excited about the earth on which they live, by exposing
them to concrete and practical ways in which they can
use local resources and practice sustainability.
With examples of handmade tools and craft work, as
well as photos of our Gamme, log cabin, root cellar,
outdoor kitchen and gardens, we will teach about combining
native skills, folk arts, and modern technologies in
the pursuit of sustainable living. The presentations
will be 1 – 1.5 hours long and may include a bow drill
fire demonstration and a chance for students to make
their own string from tree bark! During the last two
weeks in February we will be traveling to schools.
Would you like this program to happen at your high
school or in your community? We need Kroka friends and
students to talk with their schools and help us to schedule
this program. Contact us for the Sustainability
Outreach Program brochure and more information.
