Wild Deer 2
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are not offering our Wild Deer program in 2021. We hope to be able to welcome Wild Deer participants again in 2022.
Wild Deer 2 offers Wild Deer 1 graduates a unique opportunity to dive deeper in their nature connection journey. We accept a maximum of 10 people to ensure a personal, in-depth experience for each participant. Together, we refine our skills and develop proficiency with humans’ four basic needs – shelter, water, fire, and food. Proficiency with these skill sets leaves participants feeling more confident in their abilities and better able to build deeper relationships with the core elements of nature.
Program content highlights:
- Shelter design for each season
- Food and materials foraging in fall vs. winter
- Primitive and modern fishing, hunting and trapping skills
- Wilderness Navigation
- Medicine making
- Fire lighting and tending
