Join us through the seasons for a weekly outdoor learning adventure in Matsinger Forest.

Come experience learning together with the land in deep Winter! Let’s learn about our wild neighbors by following the tracks and signs they leave behind. We will do lots of exploring and discovering, as well as building quinzee snow shelters, practicing bow-drill fire-making, and cooking snacks over the fire. Let’s make crafts and carve utensils and tools; sing songs and share stories, and we always make time to play epic games! Learn to be warm and dry outside during the coldest and wettest time of year—-and have a lot of fun at EarthWalk-Fairbanks Forest School!

Spring Registration Opens Feb. 13.

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. You will hear from Angella Gibbons, director of EarthWalk-Fairbanks, within a week with any questions and next steps.
