Discovering the extraordinary

Nature Connection

Direct experiences in nature that nurture awareness, gratitude, and belonging.

Earthskills & Arts

From fire building and shelter making to photography and weaving with natural materials, children practice traditional skills that grow both creativity and self-reliance.

Community & Mentoring

Through small groups and caring guidance, kids learn collaboration, responsibility, and how to lead with confidence and authenticity.

Mission

At Poplar & Pine we strive to build and foster confidence, curiosity, and connection through hands-on learning of nature-based crafts, skills, and play. Our goal is to encourage children of all ages to stretch their boundaries, honor the land, and see themselves as a vital part of the natural world.

Vision

Our vision is of a safe place where children are encouraged to explore their curiosities and grow confident in their skills and abilities — preparing to emerge as leaders ready to guide and shape a better future.

Our Promise

Dirty hands, authentic experiences, and pockets full of rocks and wonder.
