Founded in 1970, Glenridge Cooperative is a play-based preschool nestled in Glen Canyon Park in San Francisco. Stroll through our woods and you'll find children stomping in mud, climbing on stumps, or chasing friends through a eucalyptus grove. The schoolhouse sits on seventy acres of boulders, brush, and wildlife, which are explored daily on hikes led by staff and parents. For Glenridge families it is a great privilege that the natural world can be a nurturing one as well.

When they get the slide and tunnel combo just right 😌

This afternoon we gathered for our annual Stone Soup celebration 🥣
Stone Soup is a folk story about cooperation and generosity in the face of scarcity. In the tale, a group of travelers arrives at a village with nothing but an empty pot. The villagers, initially unwilling to share their food, watch as the travelers begin making “stone soup,” adding water and a large stone to their pot. One by one, villagers grow curious and contribute small ingredients (carrots, seasonings, and more) until the pot is filled with a delicious, nourishing soup that everyone shares together.
Students had a great time preparing soup for this year’s event, complete with the stone, which was found and passed around for all to see 🪨
