Homesteading for Kids
During this week we explore the world of wild plants and homesteading crafts, as well as meet the animals of local farms and ranches. Under the guidance of our Wilders Guild, campers learn about edible and medicinal plants, engage in hands-on fiber arts projects, and visit local urban farms.
At the end of the week we make our own ice cream and have a down home fiddle party with the Trackers Country Time Jamboree Band and our own root beer wild crafted by the kids themselves.
Wild Plants Safety: Certifcation and Instruction
Trackers Wilders Guild instructors focus on every student developing their Plants Safety Certification for edible and medicinal plant harvest. This thorough curriculum instills a deft respect for the methodology necessary to understand the potency of wild plants and harvest them in a safe and sustainable manner. Campers create medicinal tinctures or other elements of a wild plant apothecary.
The Wilders Garden
The Wilders Guild are caretakers and cultivators. They restore the land and tend to the well-being of the village. Their gardens are vast wild landscapes, reclaimed from domestication, thriving with an abundant and rich harvest.
