About
Nature school is an educational offering that is designed to be an exciting journey of discovery and exploration, where children can learn about the natural world, develop outdoor skills and cultivate a sense of wonder and curiosity through hands-on experiences and play based learning.
Our classroom takes place on 39 acres of land in Corbett OR, providing a blend of forest and farm, nestled in the Columbia River Gorge. We interact with sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, honey bees, wildlife, a natural stream, native plants, a children’s garden, natural play space and more.
Gathering every Saturday in July and August at the Mother(s)land, our nature school offers an 8 week long summer program designed for children of varying age and skill level. From beginner friendly walks to more advanced forest expeditions; to science and ecology, environmental education and practical outdoor skills; as well as simple observation practices and play based learning.
