About Wild Earth Camps

Since 2004, our all outdoor summer day camps have provided nature adventures for children that build skills and nurture greater awareness and self-confidence.

Using traditional and modern mentoring, our experienced and inspiring adult and teen instructors guide the children in engaging earth-based activities, awareness games, experiential knowledge of plants and animals, natural craft, and story and song.

Gratitude and reverence for the earth, as well as fostering a vision of community based on mutual respect and acknowledgment are modeled and encouraged.

Campers are grouped (by age) in “clans” of 8-12 children, who together explore beautiful and magical land bordering the Mohonk Preserve and Shawangunk Ridge.
