LICHEN EARLY LEARNING

Lichen Early Learning is located on East of Eden Farm, a 15 acre property approximately 15 minutes north of downtown Bellingham. The family farm is owned and managed by Sam and Liza Janis. The community minded sustainable agriculture model that Sam and Liza embody in their farm led to the partnership between the two like minded teams. Students and families will get to explore and enjoy the wooded classroom area, working farm, pond and wetlands, and the opportunity to stop by the farm stand for fresh produce during drop off and pickup!... Our purpose is to cultivate an environment where children, families, and community are celebrated and valued through a holistic, nature-based learning experience... We believe that the root of our work is building meaningful, reciprocal, and collaborative relationships with our students, their families, our teaching team, the wider Salish Sea community, and the natural world.
