Welcome to Wilderness Awakening

We support people to deepen their connection with the earth, one another and oneself.
Through workshops, camps and retreats, we weave mindfulness, naturalist studies, art and gratitude to
remember our Wild and Free.

Wilderness Awakening is growing.

We are looking for teachers to lead classes, camps, and retreats for youth and adults alike. Whether it’s at our 44 acre Samsara Ridge or hosted at a nearby park, we would love to hear from you.

  • "Our son participated in an overnight camp last summer and it was a very memorable experience for him. He loved the freedom and exploratory nature of the week spent outside building forts, climbing and playing. Highly recommend Wilderness Awakening camps!” - Liz Parent

  • "The New Moon Alchemy program is pure magic! Not only did it feel divinely timed, Julia guides a profound and sacred journey journey to embrace the inner voice. Having this sacred space for being heard and seen on such a deep level feels like an enormous blessing in life. Julia is a beautiful spirit to guide this journey and create the nurturing space for transformations to emerge." - Kyra Christopherson

  • "My child came home dirty and joyous every day. She loved collaborative problem solving, freedom to explore, and the connections she made with the staff." - Shaun Walsh

  • "Mal loved the Day Camps; it was so good for him last summer. It was wonderful to see him become independent and enjoy the outdoors. I grew up playing in the woods, enjoying nature, and catching toads; I want that for him. He needs something different from school that still enables him to grow." - Cindy Harley
