The sons of farmers and others would live at the boarding school, and their work on the fields would sustain the school so most of them did not have to pay tuition, but the school financially stable. The school was well-known in the 19th century for its innovative pedagogy. A 1857 article in The Massachusetts Teacher and Journal of Home and School Education wrote that the system "proved that pupils, who enter such an institution at ten years of age, and remain there ten years, can, by their labor alone, defray their expenses for board, clothing, and instruction, besides having learned a useful occupation". The school also accepted students from wealthy families who would pay tuition. Fellenberg has thus been described as "endorsing a stratified society" where people are not seen as equal. The combination of academic and agricultural training also included the development of innovative techniques in agriculture, such as the use of sowing and reaping machines, the introduction of new seeds and plants, and the improvement of existing species.
