  • We are an "all weather" program.  Parents must commit to providing appropriate gear and clothing.  See below for more information!

  • Children dress for the weather

  • Layers are taken on or off as needed as the temperature changes throughout the day. 

  • If it rains, children wear waterproof clothing!  Children can choose to work and play in the rain.

  • If it snows, children wear insulating clothes!  We will recommend what kind of clothing is best to keep children warm and dry. 

  • There are covered areas in the forest, so children can be out in the weather, or take a break from it. 

  • Instruction occurs throughout the day, in rain, snow, fog, or sunshine!
