The Full Story

Imagine an outdoor learning lab rooted in community engagement, education and economic opportunity, multigenerational collaboration, cultural and ecological stewardship, and healthy living practices.

 

In the Fall of 2021 a science teacher, a superintendent, a Parks and Rec director, a few hundred elementary school students, and a handful of community members began dreaming of what has become the Soil Outdoor Learning Lab.

​

​A year later: business sponsors and private donors have stepped up to get the project started, Durango School District 9R has provided the real estate and stands fully behind the project, Durango Parks and Recreation has partnered to realize the community garden aspect of the project, The Hive is poised to "create & pollinate", the student scientists (kindercollege) and gardeners of Durango are getting excited to dig in, construction has begun . . . and now we want you to join us!
