It’s time to come back to nature.
We partner with K–12 leaders to establish and strengthen high-quality outdoor education to improve health, joy, and learning.
Children, and the adults who support them, are struggling.
They’re feeling disconnected from their natural rhythms, their bodies, and the world around them.
When learning happens outdoors with intention, students become more engaged, educators feel renewed, and school communities grow stronger.
Without outdoor education, our childrens’ futures are at risk. Regular and intentional outdoor education is no longer an option…it’s a necessity.
This is what fuels us.
About Us
Explore Nature by Nurture partners with K–12 schools and districts to make outdoor education a lasting part of school culture. We help leaders strengthen instruction, increase student engagement, and support educator wellbeing by bringing learning outside—consistently and intentionally.
