​ Summer Camps 2026
​

This summer, join outdoor educator and Polaris Nature Connect facilitator, Amy Edwards, for hands-on nature inspired learning and play out on the land. The school is surrounded by many beloved green spaces and conservation areas to which we will journey in search of magic and inspiration, rain or shine. We will explore the pond, climb and play in the treehouse, throw stones in the river, play games in the fields and forests, craft nature journals, and cook over the fire. Each week will have a unique inspiration and focus but we will go where the wind takes us. We hope to see you there!
​
Please see the schedule below for details.

Camps run from 9 AM to 3:30 PM with after care available until 4pm at an additional cost.

We’re bringing out the picnic blankets this week! We will spend a portion of each day foraging for natural materials and then settling in for afternoons of crafting together. We will create cordage, flower crowns, spoons, nature journals, fairy baskets, and more.

This week we will draw big inspiration from the plant and tree allies all around us. We will learn how to identify common plants and trees and how to forage safely and respectfully. We will make special concoctions like wildflower jelly, sun teas, pine syrup, and we will eat wild raspberries by the handful.
