As an educator, scientist, and naturalist, it is a central mission to connect humans with the more than human world in multiple ways.
We offer courses, workshops, and tutoring for all ages in skills ranging from fire building, archery, and crafting to plant identification, animal tracking and behavior, biology, chemistry, physics, and more!
We also offer professional development workshops and seminars for instructors interested in exploring new perspectives in education.
