Welcome at Ponderosa!

A unique, artistic community where we provide care and education for multi-talented and highly sensitive young people. Young people who, due to their unique way of thinking and learning, fall outside the conventional education system—often with far-reaching consequences.

We offer them a dynamic environment with natural, non-imposed rhythms and structures. An environment characterized by curiosity, nuance, imperfection, diversity, unpredictability, and complexity. From this foundation, we support young people in discovering how to translate their values into meaningful, self-identifying paths and projects.
