For each child, the learning journey begins with a spark of curiosity and passion, which is gently held and fostered through our supportive community of peers and instructors.

Using traditional and modern mentoring techniques, our inspiring instructors will endeavor to guide your children towards greater awareness and self-confidence.

While enjoying and exploring, singing and storytelling together, we will build deeper knowledge and awareness through:

• Practicing skills that serve our basic human needs of fire, shelter, water and food.

• Hands-on learning of native, earth-based crafts using natural materials and ancient techniques.

• Curiosity led exploring and building knowledge of place through full immersion in our local ecology, geology, geography and topography, and by identifying and understanding local plants and animals.

• Honing our awareness skills using games, tracking, silence, invisibility and journaling.

• Continuously encouraging gratitude and reverence for the earth, with a vision of community based on mutual respect and acknowledgment.

It is with gratitude for the songs, stories, and experience that guided our ancestors and the caretakers of this land, that we joyfully offer Wild Earth’s Cedar Heart Home School Program.
