RE-Wild Yourself – Outdoor Education Ontario

Outdoor education in Ontario at Barefoot Bushcraft invites you to reconnect with the land…

Here, beneath the open sky and among the whispering trees, you will re-learn how to walk with the land. Our programs offer hands-on skills, quiet moments of connection, and the strength that comes from knowing you belong to the earth.

All programs subject to availability.

Custom designed classes and programs are available for groups such as nature clubs, homeschool students, Scout groups, charity organizations, and more!

Outdoor Education in Ontario

We go beyond outdoor activities — our work is about rekindling the thread between self, community, and nature.
Through intergenerational learning, storytelling, land stewardship, and primitive living skills, we weave each course into a culture of nature connection — a return to ways that have sustained our people for centuries.

A Place to Learn, Remember, and Reconnect

While many schools teach from books and desks, we teach from the wind, the soil, the tracks of deer, and the call of birds. You will work with your hands, strengthen your body, and open your senses to the language of the wild.

Our programs are open to all skill levels, and we craft experiences for:

  • Nature clubs and wildcraft circles

  • Homeschool students

  • Scout groups and youth organizations

  • Charities and community gatherings

Our Mission

  • Foster a deep, lasting bond with nature

  • Understand and speak the language of birds

  • Learn the habits of local wildlife

  • Nurture leadership and creativity in all participants

  • Guide through mentoring and example

  • Promote regenerative community design

  • Encourage peacemaking and cooperation

  • Walk as good stewards of the land

  • Meet both the yearning for adventure and the need for learning

  • Offer experiences that stay in the memory like the scent of woodsmoke

VISION:

To give every person the chance to live closer to the land, honour nature’s cycles, and help restore the balance between people and earth.

PASSION:

We are called to bring people to the land, to share ancient skills, and to show the beauty and strength found in the natural world. Our passion is rooted in the same soil that sustained our ancestors.

PURPOSE:

With skilled guides and traditional knowledge, we help people discover themselves through the ways of the earth — building resilience, awareness, and connection.
