Green Heron Nature Camp
Immerse your child in the beauty of the Petaluma River and its watershed at Green Heron Nature Camp!
Youth will embark on a transformative adventure as they discover the wonders of nature through exploration, earth-based skills, wild crafting and play!
Our mentors will guide youth in their nature connection journey as campers delight in kayaking adventures on the river, take refreshing swims in the beautiful pond at Open Field Farm, deepen their sense of place with sit spots, and strengthen their connection to the land, themselves, and each other through nature-based art, crafts, and games.
From wildlife tracking to the fascinating world of edible and medicinal plants, each week of camp will bring a unique opportunity for campers to delve deeper with an expert special guest!
Give your child the gift of unforgettable memories and a deep connection to nature at Green Heron Nature Camp this summer!

COHORT POLICY:
To ensure a tailored and age-appropriate environment, we carefully group kids into cohorts based on their age a few weeks before their week of camp begins. This thoughtful approach allows us to tailor activities, learning experiences, and supervision to the unique needs and interests of each age group. During registration, you'll have the chance to request for campers to be placed in the same cohort as their friends, and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.
CANCELLATION POLICY:
If you notify us at least 2 weeks in advance, we can process a full refund, deducting a $35.00 cancellation fee. Refunds will not be possible with less than 2 weeks' notice.
