A site of informative resources that will have you making the most out of your time in nature. Please browse the articles, link to our site, and check back for updates.
My new book: Wilderness Rhythms is now available and highlights many benefits of adding some music, voice or instrument, into your nature outings.
The E-Books and Courses stem from many years of teaching in this field. Consulting, small group, and private lessons are available and offer a unique opportunity to learn bushcraft and nature- lore as rarely found today.
Enjoy the site and best wishes for your nature outings.
Enjoy your wild nature,
Chad Clifford
