Nature Connection is the container that holds our program. Magical interactions happen everyday when we notice the nest of Hummingbird, the slow crawl of Stinkbug on the trail, the fluffy catkins on Willow Tree.

storytelling is the backbone of our program. We use oral stories and folktales to teach lessons and connect children with their local plants, animals, and seasonal rhythms. We often see the stories we tell the children come alive in their play throughout the day!

An outdoor classroom offers ample space to run, climb, swing, and explore, challenging and supporting your child’s natural development.

Regular practice and modeling the use of all of our senses to promote physical awareness and presence in the world.

foraging + acorn processing, wild bead making, whittling, weaving, natural clays and more, support a deep connection to nature and promote creativity.

Things like navigation, animal tracking, plant + animal ID, shelter building, friction fire, and more. These skills promote resilience, common sense, creativity and confidence outdoors.

we experience all types of weather at forest school! We splash in puddles, dip our hands in mud, cool ourselves in creeks, and build rain shelters as needed!

We forge bonds not just with each other, but with the plants and animals around us as. Our wild kin!

Plenty of time to explore, splash, climb, and drop into make-believe games.
