While participating in the  Homeschool Naturalist Program is an experiential learning environment where your child will learn about all the earth sciences; botany, entomology, and basic biology.  Our hands-on approach helps create a deep nature connection while having fun learning . Our experienced Field Instructors and Mentors plan through the seasons as they use ancient knowledge and wisdom to guide them through meaningful nature-based experiences.  We take a deep dive into observing and learning about the local flora and fauna through activities and tasks involving; animal tracking, plant & tree identification, natural crafts and other hands-on skills.  These experiences helps create confident, strong, self sufficient learners. Our 100% outdoor program is like no other, as nature is not only our classroom its our teacher and the foundation of every experience.

We will go on adventures back in time and learn  about the resources that have provided our ancestors with the four basic elements of life; shelter, water, fire, and food.  Through a numbers of Earth based skills and natural crafts, your child will learn how to manage these resources found in nature, as they learn how to be stewards of the land.

Through the ancient tradition of coyote teaching, we are helping build a community of natural leaders that will has; a sense of belonging; a passion to succeed; and problem solving skills
