Details
Wild + Free's 20th annual conference gathers homeschooling mothers at The Factory at Franklin, a beloved converted mill venue in Franklin, Tennessee, on September 11-12, 2026. Founded by Ainsley Arment, the two-day event centers on Charlotte Mason principles, nature-based learning, and child-led curiosity. Attendees can expect keynote sessions, a maker market featuring independent artisans and curriculum creators, live music, and structured time for peer connection. The gathering draws families from across the homeschooling spectrum who share a commitment to slow, wonder-filled education. It is designed primarily for mothers and is one of the largest Charlotte Mason-oriented conferences in the country.
