Thank you, Flying Deer community!

Thank you to all those who made our spring fundraiser an amazing success -- by donating and bidding on silent auction items, volunteering in numerous capacities, and turning out for Flying Deer Day to celebrate our loving, supportive, and fun community! All money raised from the auction and Flying Deer Day supports our sliding-scale and scholarship programs, which ensures that we are able to continue making our programs accessible to all.

Welcome to Flying Deer!

Flying Deer Nature Center is a wilderness school and community dedicated to mentoring children, youth, adults and families in deep connection to nature, self, and others. Since Flying Deer's inception in 1995, more than 2,500 children and adults have participated in our nature education programs, wilderness adventures, coming-of-age experiences, and community activities.

At Flying Deer, students gain comfort and self-sufficiency in the forest, and confidence that empowers them in all aspects of their lives.
