OUR COMMUNITY
Our Community
Field & Fold is built around a kind, supportive, and connected community where families know one another and children feel welcomed and valued. We believe in sharing the joys and challenges of homeschooling, encouraging one another, and creating space for meaningful friendships. Families are active participants in the community, contributing their time, talents, and encouragement. Together, we create a culture of belonging, generosity, respect, and genuine connection—where children can grow and families don't have to homeschool alone.
Host Locations and Program Oversight
Our co-op will meet at Holcomb Bridge Park, or other surrounding parks should they be more accessible or appropriate for given activities. The hybrid program will be held at the beautiful St. Luke's Presbyterian Church in Dunwoody, GA. This program is managed by EdV Instructional Studios, ensuring thoughtful program oversight, professional planning, and a consistent, high-quality learning experience for participating families.
PHILOSOPHY
GROW FREELY, BELONG DEEPLY
Field & Fold is a homeschool learning community designed for families seeking something more intentional—an approach to education that values both growth, belonging, and balance. We currently offer the Field & Fold Homeschool Co-op for families who want to learn together as a community, with an emphasis on connection, nature, shared experiences, and joyful discovery.​ Looking ahead, we will be opening a hybrid homeschool program in Fall 2027 for families seeking additional support with academics while maintaining the flexibility and freedom of homeschooling.
Grow Freely
​
It is our belief that children thrive when they are given space to explore, question, create, and learn at their own developmental pace. We nurture curiosity and independence through hands-on learning, real-world experiences, and flexible pathways that honor each child’s unique strengths and readiness. Students are encouraged to take academic risks, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love of learning in an environment that supports both challenge and joy.
Belong Deeply​
​
A sense of belonging speaks to the heart of our community. Every child is truly known, valued, and supported within strong, caring relationships with teachers and peers. We intentionally build a culture of kindness, respect, and connection where students feel safe, seen, and included. This sense of belonging creates the foundation for both academic growth and personal flourishing.
Rooted in Faith​
​
Field & Fold Collective is founded in Christian values and the belief that every child is "wonderfully made" (Psalm 139:14) and worthy of dignity, compassion, and belonging. We welcome families from all backgrounds who value a thoughtful, kind, compassionate, and relationship-centered educational community. We seek to cultivate the Fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). These values will shape our interactions, conflict resolution, guidance, and shared experiences as we help children grow academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. At Field and Fold, faith shows up in the small moments — a grateful heart, a kind word, a willingness to try again. Each day begins with morning prayer and a passage of scripture, offered as an anchor of calm and intention before the adventure of learning begins. Our curricula is selected based on its effectiveness and ease-of-use in the hybrid setting. When it fits naturally, we will select faith-based options; when mainstream curricula is deemed more effective, we will integrate a faith-forward overlay.​​​
PROGRAM FRAMEWORK
Homeschool Co-op - Now Open!
​
The Field & Fold Homeschool Co-op is a family-founded, professionally managed nature-based community where families come together to learn, play, explore, and grow. Hosted in a local park, our days combine instructor-led experiences with child-directed exploration, giving children space to follow their interests, create, play, and discover.
Our cooperative model keeps Field & Fold intentionally affordable, with tuition covering program planning, oversight, and educator support.
Hybrid Education Program - Starting Fall 2027
​
Field and Fold will offer a hybrid model, meeting Monday and Wednesday beginning August 2027. This flexible structure gives families the consistency and community of an organized academic environment while preserving the freedom that makes homeschooling special. For families who want more, additional days may be added as the program grows — making it easy to scale your child's experience as your needs change. Whether you're looking for two days of structured learning or a fuller week, Field and Fold is designed to grow right alongside your family.
Passionate Leadership
​
Field & Fold is led by passionate individuals who genuinely care about the children and families they serve. Field & Fold is guided by visionary coordinators who believe homeschooling can be both intentional and deeply relational. They bring a clear vision for creating a learning community where children can grow, families can connect, and learning can happen naturally through meaningful experiences. Our Co-op Guides bring leadership experience and professional expertise, while our hybrid teachers are degreed and/or certified educators who value a balanced and intentional program that seamlessly blends in-class and home-based learning. Warm and nurturing by nature, our team creates an environment where every child feels known, supported, and excited to learn. They respect the homeschooling philosophy, honoring each family’s intentionality while embracing the individual learning styles, curiosity, and pace that make every child unique. Professional in practice, personal in approach, they are the heart of Field & Fold.
Professional Oversight
Field and Fold is a family-curated learning pod program facilitated by EdV Instructional Studios, LLC ("EdVIS"), which provides the foundational structure, leadership, and operational oversight. EdVIS ensures each program is built on strong and responsible systems, including sound business practices, compliance with local and state regulations, staffing procedures, and professional educational and curriculum planning,. This centralized support allows each pod to operate with clarity, consistency, and stability behind the scenes, giving families confidence in the quality and care of the program​, while allowing each program its own unique flair the represents the communities it serves.
Family Partnership
​
We believe education works best when programs and families partner together. Our program is designed to support — not replace — the vital role of the family in a child’s education. At Field & Fold, students learn through a hybrid model, attending classes part-time on campus and continuing learning at home on satellite days.
​
Core instruction is delivered in class, providing students with strong academic foundations, hands-on learning experiences, and guided support from certified teachers. Families then reinforce learning at home through meaningful follow-through and individualized learning opportunities. Math is the one required home-study subject, with students completing four lessons per week to ensure consistent progress and fluency development. To provide flexibility for families, parents may choose to use our recommended home-study curriculum package for remaining subjects or implement their own preferred curriculum and home-learning approach on non-class days. This model allows families to remain actively involved in their child’s education while benefiting from the structure, support, and community of a collaborative learning environment.
​
Parents are required to complete a certain number of volunteer hours per year as this further develops the family partnership and helps to keep tuition more affordable.

Unique Pod Experience
While EdV Instructional Studios, LLC provides overall management and accountability, each learning pod is designed to reflect its own distinct identity. Every pod brings its own educational philosophy, culture, values, and “flair,” shaped by the needs and desires of the local community it serves. This allows programs like Field and Fold to remain flexible and responsive, offering a learning experience that feels personal, intentional, and deeply connected to the families who are part of it—while still maintaining a shared commitment to excellence and student growth.
Origins
EdVentures, LLC began in 2022 with a small, family-centered learning pod serving just 12 students in kindergarten through 6th grade. Students attended two full days per week, plus a half day on Fridays—an intentionally flexible model designed to support both strong academics and family rhythms.
​
In the following year, the program expanded into age-based pods operating on alternate days, serving approximately 18 students per day and growing in both structure and community impact. By 2024, the original EdVentures pod reached full capacity, serving 30+ students five days per week, while also launching Weatherstone Academy to meet the needs of rising middle schoolers ready for new academic challenges and greater independence.
​
When asked, “What’s your secret sauce?” the answer is simple: we listen closely to families, observe our students, and design programs that truly fit their needs while building a close-knit, supportive, and connected community. And just as importantly—we believe learning should be joyful. Our programs are intentionally engaging, creative, and yes, a lot of fun, because children deserve an educational experience that sees and develops them as whole people.
