Upcoming Adult Programs
Nature Connection Mentoring Training with Amy Hyatt
- Introduction to Nature Connection Mentoring Sep 30 – Oct 1, 2023
- Core Routines of Nature Connection Nov 4 – 5, 2023
The trainings explore the pedagogical and philosophical frameworks we use at Vermont Wilderness School.
We think of these as the foundational practices that support successful nature connection mentoring.
Group size is kept small to ensure space for sharing and discussion. Content is tailored to meet the experience, needs, and curiosities of participants
