The East Chatham program takes place at the same time and place as Awakening Wild, our 9-month program for adults, so parents and kids can both attend nature programming one day a month!


Saturday Explorers meets one Saturday each month to learn, grow, play, and explore in nature! 

Guided by experienced mentors, shifting seasons, the interests of the group, and the lessons and opportunities from the natural world, we’ll sing songs, tell stories, play games, hike, craft, and learn wilderness living skills and naturalist identification.

Through our engagement with each other and our environment, we’ll challenge our minds and bodies and build teamwork skills, resilience, awareness, responsibility, and community. All while learning, finding our place as part of nature, and having tons of fun!
