Solarpunk is a movement and aesthetic that envisions a future where humanity succeeds in solving major contemporary challenges with an emphasis on sustainability, community, and technology.
It's our inspiration for a new kind of school.
Not long ago, the Pacific Northwest was covered in majestic oak woodlands and rolling prairies. These ecosystems sustained the people and wildlife who lived here. But over time, they've been disappearing. Today, less than 1% remain. 
We're working to bring them back. 
In 2017, we began our project of turning an 80 acre, historic farm in McMinnville, Oregon – conventionally farmed for a century – into a kind of laboratory for regenerative agriculture. And with the help of NRCS and Reidman Land Stewardship, we've restored and conserved over 20 acres of oak woodland and prairie. 
We started Clery Farm Foundation to continue this work, and to build a new type of school. A multi-generational learning center inspired by the ideals of the Solarpunk movement – an optimistic vision of the future where ecology & technology work together to create a beautiful and sustainable way of living here on planet Earth.

        In 2023 we hosted a Linfield University ecology class, who used the farm for a series of experiments – researching nematodes and decomposition in the forest and prairie.
