Field School Programs

Our field school is home to our bushcraft immersion programs, and the base camp for our Maine guided trips and expedition programs. Located in a remote part of northern Maine, our field school programs incorporate the realities of wilderness living because there is very limited infrastructure. These are the programs where we live it, every day. These programs are only run at our field school.
