Join us for 2022-23 Rhythm Fire as we explore nature and learn survival skills!

Our Mission

BU aims to connect kids to nature by encouraging child-led experiences & outdoor learning. Our forest school communities promote the health & education of each child. We do this through engaging activities, community service, communities, & equipping families to observe & explore our natural world together.

Our outdoor classrooms; where kids are free to roam & learn

We believe kids of different ages, learn differently. All of our activities at BU are done family style, where kids of all ages can engage and learn from each other. Lessons aren’t forced. Each week has a theme and we strew supplies to allow kids curiosity to take root. The kids naturally will observe, analyze, or apply principles depending on their age. Play is always encouraged.
