Mugworts Academy’s WildcraftCamp is a three-day immersive experience designed for tweens and young teens who are ready to engage more deeply with nature, creativity, and themselves. Building on the philosophy of right relationship, this camp encourages participants to explore their place in the natural world through hands-on learning, independent thinking, and creative expression while fostering self-reliance, adaptability, and connection.
Set against the peaceful backdrop of White Feather Farm, Young Explorers will take part in nature-based challenges, storytelling, movement, and art, all designed to deepen self-awareness, spark curiosity, and cultivate a sense of environmental stewardship. Activities will balance independence and collaboration, encouraging campers to engage with their surroundings, build confidence in their abilities, and develop meaningful relationships with both nature and their peers.
Each morning begins with grounding exercises, breathwork, and intention-setting, helping campers cultivate presence, focus, and emotional resilience. The day unfolds with interactive lessons on natural elements, physical activities, creative projects, and group discussions that encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and personal exploration. Afternoons provide time for more in-depth skill-building, hands-on projects, and moments of reflection, allowing participants to express themselves freely, connect with others, and integrate their experiences.
This first-year program is intentionally small and immersive, creating a supportive space where campers can challenge themselves, embrace new perspectives, and develop a lasting respect for nature and their place within it. Whether they’re learning from the elements, working with natural materials, or sharing stories under the trees, every moment is designed to empower, inspire, and guide them toward the next stage of life with confidence and curiosity.
