Every single child!

If you know of local non-profits that are working to help get every single child in nature, please give them a shout-out in the comments! We have many unsung heroes that are devoted to getting children in nature, despite economic, geographic or physical limitations.

To all of you, we say THANK YOU!

We have loved having our student teacher from Western Carolina University, Miss Maddie helping out at day camp this summer! We wish her great success as she returns for her senior year and begins student teaching.💚

This is so true! How many times have you found moods and attitudes reset after a dose of outdoor play?

It's an "easy button" on those days when we're at our wits end, when the kids are bouncing off the walls, when tongues get sharp and siblings get testy. Just head outside and see what happens!
