Company description
Brooklyn Forest offers classes in Central Park and Prospect Park for young children and their caregivers. We believe a wonderful childhood starts with imaginative play and a supportive community; with a meaningful connection to nature and wildlife; with vigorous physical work and nourishing food; with simple rhythms and constant singing; with feeling at home in the forest. Brooklyn Forest began in 2011 as a small class in the woods of Prospect Park for a handful of families from nearby neighborhoods. Now, five years later, hundreds of children and caregivers from all over Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens come every week to play and learn with us in the park. Our classes are still small, but our community is growing.Job description
