Back to Earth supports young people from all walks of life to connect deeply with the natural world. Our programs empower youth to cultivate a curious and reverent relationship to nature as a vital source of joy and well being. Since 2015 we have taken hundreds of teens and young adults on transformative adventures in wild places all over California. We teach skills that expand young people's knowledge base and ability to care for themselves and each other. Our guides offer skilled mentorship, helping young people navigate the transitions of adolescence towards lives of purpose and authenticity.
