Hands-on nature journaling experiences that inspire curiosity, observation, and meaningful learning.


Service Description

Introduce your students to the joy of slowing down, observing closely, and discovering the natural world through nature journaling. Every workshop is thoughtfully designed to meet the developmental needs of your learners while making meaningful connections to the Ontario Curriculum.

Along the way, they build curiosity, strengthen observation skills, and develop confidence as learners while making meaningful connections with the world around them. Whether we're exploring your schoolyard, a nearby park, or another outdoor learning space, each workshop is engaging, hands-on, and designed to inspire a lifelong appreciation for nature.

Pine & Ponder Outdoors is located on Treaty 19, also known as the Ajetance Treaty, named after a Chief of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This area, now known as Orangeville, Ontario is the Headwaters of the Credit River, known in Anishinaabemowin as the Missinnihe, or “Trusting River.” This land is home to many Indigenous peoples, including the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, Wendat, Petun, Inuit, and Métis. We feel incredibly grateful to observe, learn, be curious, and spend time on this land, and we honour the ongoing relationships and stewardship Indigenous peoples hold with it.
