Summer Camps
Make memories to last a lifetime!
Join us for a season of wonder, exploration, and connection at Wild Hearts Nature School!
Rooted in a thriving nature-loving community and guided by an authentic Forest School approach, our Summer Camps offer children ages 3–9 an unforgettable outdoor experience filled with joy, discovery, and growth.
Each week features a unique theme designed to ignite curiosity and deepen a child’s relationship with the natural world. Alongside these engaging focuses, campers enjoy the full Forest School experience—free play in wild spaces, nature walks, storytelling, creek time, tool use, and the kind of friendships that grow best beneath open skies.
At Wild Hearts, summer isn’t just a break from school—it’s a time for children to follow their instincts, build confidence, and feel at home in nature.
Let your child’s summer adventure begin — wild, free, and full of heart!
