Welcome to the School of Country Wisdom
A "School Without Walls," the School of Country Wisdom offers courses highlighting country living skills – from growing great tomatoes and cooking with herbs to crazy quilting and basket weaving.

Courses reconnect you with the land and cultural heritage by turning Schoharie County’s
600-square-miles of working landscapes into a learning center for all who visit.

The 6th Sense: Awaken Your Intuitive Mind
The 6th Sense allows us to perceive energies not accessible to our five physical senses. We all have this ability, but few places teach its development, and modern culture discourages it. Yet this sense has many practical uses in farming, healing, communication, relationships, earth awareness, and spiritual development. We will explore a dozen ways to use this intuitive mode of perception. Workshop leader: David Yarrow.
