HOWL Nature Company's mission is to provide every child with positive experiences in nature's wild classroom, while nurturing curiosity, building connections, and cultivating a generation of stewards committed to protecting our earth.

Help HOWL achieve this mission in Northwest Michigan through summer camps, after school programs, classroom fieldtrips, teacher professional development, and homeschool programs.

Every dollar raised through the Back to Our Roots campaign goes directly toward rebuilding HOWL. Funds will support scholarships so that every child has access to our youth programs, because all children need time in nature for a healthy and happy childhood.

Our scholarship fund and program development fund need support after being in hibernation for so long! To learn more about our previous work in California and Tanzania, please visit howlnature.org.

🌳Tree Planted for gifts of $100 + 🌳

$100 🌿 Sapling A Sugar Maple. A White Birch. A White Pine. We'll put one in the ground in your name next Spring, because the best gifts will continue to grow. So do the curious, connected young stewards you're helping us reach.

$250🌳 Deep Roots: Michigan winters are no joke, but a tree with deep roots doesn't just survive, it thrives. This gift provides a scholarship for our home school program or a week of summer camp.

$500🌲 Old Growth: The redwoods where HOWL began are hundreds of years old. This gift provides a fieldtrip day for 50 children to the forest.

$1,000+🏕️ Canopy: The canopy protects everything beneath it: the saplings, the forest floor, the whole living system. This gift provides an 8 week after school program for children.
