Homeschool in the Wild is a small-group outdoor experience for children to socialize through games, exploration, and skill-building activities. Our homeschool program is based on a model for teaching and learning that is designed to engage the body and senses, inspire the mind, awaken curiosity, develop confidence, create community, and build nature connection.

Our homeschool program features:

  • Unique outdoor learning experiences

  • A small group setting

  • Applied projects

  • Experienced mentors

  • Stories, games, and adventures in life science and wilderness skills

  • Community building, leadership opportunities, and inspired learning

Weekly gatherings include stories, games, adventures in life science and wilderness skills, community building, leadership opportunities, and inspired learning following a course of study that builds week to week. Through their own experiences, they will learn awareness of their surroundings and how to let the natural world be their teacher.
