Programs Overview

We believe that hands-on experiential learning the best way to have a lasting impact. Our aim is to provide opportunities for ages 0-99 to discover the Blue Ridge. We do this through a variety of programs, all of which revolve around either getting participants into real context or bringing that context to them. Our programs allow for activity to be interest-driven and are focused on inquiry. This develops critical thinking skills, responsibility and personal value, the keys to building the next generation of stewards.
