In 2018, the project made its home at Middlebury College. 

Along with our community and campus partners, we explore alternative practices in agriculture, education, the arts, health and wellness, and sacred-practice traditions that are in better harmony with the natural world. New Perennials offers courses, publications, and programming rooted in common sense, as a respite from an unraveling world, and with the energy and creativity to meet adversity with grace, justice, and gratitude.

Since 2018, New Perennials has: 

  • Developed relationships with 35 community partners, practitioners, and organizations
  • Taught and learned from 250 students through our classes, programs, and internships
  • Published/produced 23 books, pamphlets, audio pamphlets, podcasts, and student work
  • Developed 3 courses to support the project
  • Received 20,000 visits/downloads to our website and publishing platform
