Become a Mentor

An invitation for parents, adults, and young adults with a real commitment to creating spaces for children and families to connect in nature.

Is This You?

A calling, not a job posting

If part of you already wants to help hold a space like this, for your own children or for the children of your community, that's worth listening to. This is an invitation, not a requirement.

How It Works

Mentor, co-mentor, or apprentice

There's no single way in. Depending on your experience and time, you might start as an apprentice learning alongside a mentor, co-mentor a specific activity or age group, or eventually hold your own corner of a Friday.

In practice, it means showing up on Fridays, practicing spaceholding alongside other mentors, and slowly taking on more responsibility for the space as you're ready for it.
