We empower educators to bring nature’s proven academic, wellbeing, and planetary benefits into every school through the way they teach.

The Problems

01.

In every classroom, students are struggling physically and mentally, spending more time indoors with less physical activity than ever before. This makes it hard to learn.

02.

In every school, teachers are overwhelmed providing both academic and social-emotional support to students. This makes it hard to teach. 

03.

In every community, education is fundamentally disconnected from nature and the environment. This makes it hard to connect learning to the world around us. 

The Opportunity

Over 1.5 billion school-aged children and 81 million teachers

worldwide spend more than half of their days each year in school.

​

Including nature experiences as a regular part of learning supports:

improved health and well-being for students & teachers. 

improved mental health for students & teachers. 

improved academic performance, focus, behavior, & love of learning.

enhanced pro-environmental behaviors. 

Our solution:
Nature connections in schools.
Every school, everywhere on the planet.

Our Strategies

We make it easy to bring nature’s proven and wide-ranging benefits into schools.

“The workshop was just what I was hoping: a combination of inspiring, sparking of new ideas for outdoor classrooms and activities, and pragmatic information and models of how to make outdoor instruction happen. I felt this workshop in my body, mind, and spirit!”

-Joseph Polman, Professor of Learning Sciences and Human Development at CU Boulder
