Description

Calling all makers, crafters and nature lovers! Our Wildcrafters camp will focus on the plants and trees growing around us and how to use them as incredible resources and inspiration for makers of crafts, builds and more. We will:

  • Connect with and learn from the teachings of plants and trees.
  • Practice nature journaling to inspire our craft.
  • Use plant fibers and technology to weave, build and craft functional pieces to take home.
  • Create visual botanical art using a variety of paints and natural dyes.
  • Learn to work with wood for beading, sculpting and building.
  • Build forts using natural building supplies and innovative engineering.
  • Work with natural materials to make paper, create nature mobiles, plant pots, bird feeders and more!

Campers will take home their nature inspired crafts, art and builds for families to enjoy.
