This program will focus on outdoor exploration, survival skills, foraging, wildlife, self-sustaining practices, and more. Our hope is that when given some guidance and tools children of all ages will take part in lots of child-led learning together. Exploring and learning about the world around them. At the same time, learning teamwork and important life skills while building self-awareness and esteem for themselves and others.
