Growing towards a sustainable future

Empowering the Next Generation of Stewards

At the Ecological Land Stewardship Academy we empower individuals to become mindful stewards of our planet. Through engaging hands-on educational programs and volunteer opportunities offered at Stone Mountain Farm in New Paltz, NY, we aim to cultivate a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness between people, the food we eat, and the more-than-human world that sustains us.

Learn With Us

Based in New Paltz, New York, we are a 501c3 environmental education non-profit organization and the land we steward serves as the campus to educate our community. Our programs are designed to inspire a sense of responsibility and reverence for the natural world. By immersing participants in interactive learning experiences, we help them develop practical skills and knowledge that can be applied in their everyday lives. From regenerative agriculture techniques to ecosystem conservation practices, our curriculum covers a wide range of topics essential for fostering a harmonious relationship between humans and the environment.
