Minnesota Master Naturalist

Homeschool family field trip in January

he Audubon Center of the North Woods (ACNW) has been providing environmental and outdoor education programs since 1971 and we now extend our quality K12 programming to the homeschool community. We specialize in overnight experiences for K–12 students and our classes are aligned with MN Academic Standards.

Join for us for a two- to three-day environmental learning experience during a program specifically designated for homeschooled students and their parents/teachers. During this residential (overnight) program, you will join your students for more in-depth and hands-on nature learning. Through class options focused on ecology, wildlife, adventure, or cultural and natural history, they will discover new ways to connect with the natural world, challenge themselves to push the limits of their comfort zones, and have fun in a new learning environment. 
 
The homeschool fields trips include lodging, all meals and a variety of classes led by our educational staff. We offer these at a tiered family rate to make them more affordable for homeschool parents and co-ops.
 
We welcome families of all sizes and cooperatives are encouraged to inquire. Note: Families will stay together in the same room. There should be at least one parent involved (no drop-offs).
