Rooted in Nature: A Life-Changing FREE Program for Youth (16–21)

Ready for Something Different?

Phones off. Stars above. The scent of pine in the air. And a feeling inside you that says: “I want to do great things with my life.”

This isn't just a camping trip. It’s a 3-day wilderness immersion at Pointe Grondine Park, just outside Killarney Provincial Park in Ontario — where you’ll tent under the stars and experience a whole new way of being alive.

This program is designed to help you:

✅ Break free from stress and technology
✅ Connect deeply with nature and yourself
✅ Discover strengths you didn’t even know you had
✅ Meet other young people who get you
✅ Learn practical wilderness and leadership skills you’ll carry for life
✅ Enjoy delicious organic farm-to-table meals every day

And here's the best part... It’s 100% FREE!

Yes — truly free. We cover everything:

✅ Travel costs to and from Sudbury, ON
✅ All meals — healthy and delicious
✅ Lodging (tenting under the stars) and wilderness gear


What You’ll Learn

This is a hands-on, life-changing adventure where you’ll dive into incredible skills and knowledge, including:

🌿 Plant Walks – Identify edible wild foods and learn about powerful medicinal plants.
🔥 Friction Fire – Make fire with your own hands, the ancestral way.
🕊️ Bird Language & Animal Tracking – Understand the hidden signs of the forest and read the landscape like a storybook.
🏃‍♂️ Primal Movements & Barefoot Walking – Awaken natural strength, agility, and connection to the earth.


…and so much more to help you come home and rewild your lifestyle.


Safety Comes First

We know that venturing into the wilderness can feel daunting — especially for parents. Please know that safety is our utmost priority. We have a comprehensive emergency plan in place and a highly experienced team dedicated to creating a safe, supportive environment for everyone.


Free Information Session for Parents and Youth

We want you (and your parents) to feel fully informed and confident. That’s why we’re offering a free information session where we’ll share more details, answer questions, and address any concerns you might have.


Why Are We Doing This?

Because we believe youth like you deserve the chance to discover who you really are, and gain skills that empower you to thrive — without money standing in the way.

Nervous? That’s Normal.

Stepping outside your comfort zone is scary. But that’s also where growth happens. We’ll be right there with you every step of the way. And you’re welcome to invite a friend (or more!) if that feels safer or more fun.


Spots Are Limited!

We keep our group small so that everyone has a powerful, personal experience. Once we’re full, we’re full — so don’t wait!
