Ancestral Knowledge uses wilderness awareness and primitive technologies to reconnect our students to the ways of their ancestors. We take our students down a path seldom traveled to rediscover the ancient ways of survival that made modern life possible. We custom design our outdoor education presentations, mentoring, and apprenticeship programs to fit the needs of schools, community groups, families and individuals.

Ancestral Knowledge is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization operated by a community of naturalists who specialize in native life skills. We use the earth and our natural surroundings as the tools to teach wilderness survival, ancient primitive skills, activities, and philosophies that support sustainable lifestyles.

We combine two methods of teaching. These include Experiential Education-“learning by doing” and Coyote Teaching-“guiding not giving”. This allows our participants to develop a way of thinking that increases their problem solving skills.

We have many exciting events coming up that will be posted here soon.
