Rivers to Ridges

Rivers to Ridges

Our educational philosophy is built on the concept of nature mentoring. We encourage learners to develop a deep sense of place through understanding their role in the natural world. We believe that the more we get in touch with the natural rhythms of nature, the more we tune in with our own rhythms. ​By building trust, modelling positive behaviours, and inspiring deep connection to the land, our aim is to empower young learners to feel confident, aware, empathetic and connected to their community.  We are guided by the learners’ passions, and we customize our programming around each unique group of students, based on their interests, needs and desires. ​We believe strongly in fostering curiosity and we strive to hold space for learners to come to answers at their own pace.  We offer outdoor land-based camps, resource design, educational consultation, curriculum development and more!
