At Wylde Center, we connect people to nature. We believe every child deserves the chance to explore, discover, and fall in love with the natural world. Our nature camps offer a truly immersive outdoor experience, designed to connect children with the wonders of nature in fun, meaningful ways.
Give your child the gift of unplugged adventure, where screens are replaced by towering trees, buzzing bees, and endless skies. With five unique greenspaces to explore—Hawk Hollow, Sugar Creek, Oakhurst Garden, Edgewood + Coan Garden, and Mulberry Fields—campers will embark on exciting adventures in some of the most beautiful natural settings around. Each site offers unique ecosystems and experiences, from wildlife observation and plant discovery to open fields perfect for outdoor games and exploration.
Through hands-on activities, children will engage in arts and crafts inspired by nature, learn skills like shelter building and gardening, and develop confidence as they deepen their connection to the environment. Our camps foster curiosity, resilience, and a lifelong appreciation for the great outdoors.
Let nature be your child’s playground this year. With endless adventures across our five greenspaces, Wylde Center camps are the perfect way to connect, explore, and thrive under the open sky.
