Mission Statement
"Cultivating the innate curiosity and wonder of young children through nature-based education in Minneapolis." Our purpose is to empower families to help their children succeed through participating in a high quality learning experience. We also give children and families a better understanding of the environment and reasons to protect it. We are excited to be in the midst of our 2018-2019 pilot preschool program. We are expanding our program for next year. We are full with a waiting list for registration for the 2019-2020 School year.
