Wilderness Arts Programs at the Edge

We are excited to be expanding our range of programs with the addition of Wilderness Arts retreats including Wilderness Survival, Tracking, Naturalist Studies, Edible and Medicinal Plants.

These programs are designed to re-introduce the participant to the language of nature and help develop a deep and meaningful connection to the natural world.

All programs include a stay at our solar powered eco-lodge, delicious locally raised, mostly organic fare and all instruction. We are committed to passing on these ancient teachings and helping restore balance and harmony in today’s world. Join us at the Edge and reconnect with the earth at one of these new Wilderness Arts classes.

Wilderness Arts aims to offer new training programs that build on one another establishing a strong base of wilderness living skills and earth philosophy. Come learn about your natural world while strengthening your connection to the Earth under the caring guidance of Alexis Burnett.

"The Earth is the ultimate provider and for countless generations our ancestors knew how to survive and live in harmony with nature. By learning and practicing these skills we begin to experience nature in an ancient and meaningful way."
