Primitive Pursuits

Primitive Pursuits Primitive Pursuits is a nature immersion and mentoring program providing long-term nature connection

PASSION:
In each activity that we lead, story we share, or skill we teach, we draw from a place of personal inspiration. In doing so we create a learning atmosphere that motivates campers to explore nature, to practice skills and to share their experience with others outside of our programs. GRATITUDE:
In all that we do, we role model a sense of appreciation and reverence for the abundance that th

e natural world provides for us. Through this act of thanksgiving we begin to see our direct impacts and the great potential we each have to nurture the health of our environment as well as our human family. BELONGING:
We create a space where each participant can feel at home among peers and mentors and within the elements of nature. Experiencing the non-judgmental simplicity and expansiveness of nature within a supportive group creates a powerful space for healthy personal growth. BALANCE:
We support individual growth by encouraging each participant to see and move beyond their perceived limits while experiencing and exploring their roles in a supportive community. We believe that by achieving the balance of individual & group mind we are fostering a generation of courageous, innovative and caring human beings.
