Programs
Poplar Forest offers educational programs for learners of all ages. Explore the world of Thomas Jefferson through intensive field schools, educational television programming or summer kids’ camps.

“Poplar Forest offers lifelong learners the opportunity to experience the private Thomas Jefferson and the fabric of his time. Our visitors are all ages and from all over the world. They come, like Jefferson, to this remote retreat to learn and to get away. The delight of Hands-on-History, the thought provoking Democracy program and the rigor of our Field Schools prove that there is an experience for everyone at Jefferson’s Poplar Forest.”
