Heartwood is the core of our nature-connection curriculum, the trunk from which our other programs branch out.   Heartwood has been carefully crafted since 2011 to provide a progressive learning journey and comprehensive foundation in deeply relating to the natural world.  Through games, stories and exploration children learn:

• Outdoor Safety and Awareness
• Animal Tracking
• Edible and Medicinal Wild Plants
• Wilderness Survival Skills
• Bird Language
• Ancient Crafts
• Ecology, Community, Self-Discovery, and much more

Heartwood: Oaks

Ages 11-14

Heartwood is divided into three distinct groups:  the Acorns, Saplings, and Oaks.  The Oaks group is designed to provide an opportunity for enthusiastic students to continue challenging themselves in a group of peers who share their level of ability and passion for learning.
