Private classes are now available
 please read carefully as policies and prices have changed as of 6/8/08


We are now offering a limited number of private classes during weekdays (that's Monday thru Friday, sorry not weekends).  You pick your class, together we will schedule the date, and then we run the class at our camp for you as a One-on-One Private Class or as a Private Class for your small group.  Tim personally runs each Private Class at Earth Connection's camp near Somerville, Virginia. 

One day classes available this season are $150 for a one person private One-on-One class, $100 per person for 2 or more people in the same class, which will run from 9am to 4pm and includes ONE of the following classes -
Friction Fire Making - Summer Wild Edible Plants - Tracks and Sign - Basketry - Friction Fire Materials Identification - Organic Gardening -
Or your own custom class!

Two days with overnight campout this season are $300 for a one person private One-on-One class,  $250 per person for 2 or more people in the same class, run from 9am on the first day to 4pm on the second day and include ONE of the following classes
Wilderness Survival - Primitive Skills (condensed 2 day version)
 
Teens WITH a parent may be accepted for Private Classes, call or write for more info.

 

One-on-One Private Class Scheduling

 First - call or email for availability.  To schedule a private class, we will contact each other on a Thursday evening or any time Friday to plan for the following week.  We are only able to schedule one week ahead for One-on-One Private Class due to work schedules and childcare on our end.  We hope this causes no inconvenience to you.  If there is enough time for the mail to run between the day we set our class date and the class itself, we will ask you to mail in an application form which can be printed from our web site along with a check for full payment of the class. If there isn't enough time to mail in the application and payment, we ask that you email us the info from the application ( who you are, where you live, phone #'s, etc.) bring the application form and payment of cash with you to the class.  We hope the cash payment is no trouble, as we have occasionally had checks bounce.  Directions and class info ( what to bring, what to expect, etc. ) are emailed or mailed to you upon confirmation of a class date.

 
Small Group Scheduling
 
Private classes for TWO OR MORE PEOPLE can be scheduled on short notice or in advance.  Short notice works the same way as above, scheduling on Thursday or Friday for the following week.  Scheduling in advance works similarly, where we both pull out our calendars and see which dates are good for next month, next season, or whenever you choose.  Applications and payment should be sent by you after the date is agreed upon.  Directions and class info ( what to bring, what to expect, etc. ) are emailed and/or mailed to you upon our receipt of applications and tuition.

 

Please let us know if we can provide any further information.
Thank you for your interest,

Tim at Earth Connection
