Family Forest School is so popular that we are adding a second location! NEW LOCATION AT WARRIORS' PATH STATE PARK IN KINGSPORT STARTING JANUARY 22, 2025
Nourished in Nature forest school encourages the love of nature in all children, big and small. We are a child-centered, nature-based learning program for children in the mountains of East Tennessee. Our focus is on guiding children to live more in touch with their own nature and their roots, in the natural world. We help facilitate innate qualities of mindfulness, exploration, wonder, and curiosity while building a strong community. Our mission and goal is to respect each child’s inner being to help them flourish into their true selves. We meet once per week for children and families. We’ve seen remarkable benefits in mixed-age play and see how children thrive and grow in such an environment.
Children love to explore and learn about foraging, plant identification, nature based art, handicrafts and so much more. We offer all of this and more for the children and families in our community at our forest school.
Our Program
At Nourished in Nature, we provide enrichment programs that celebrate childhood and the natural world through authentic experiences guided by gifted leaders. We are committed to providing a child-centered, safe, and supportive outdoor learning environment for all of our students and their families.
