About Us

Wildflower Forest and Nature School is Stormont, Dundas, and Glengarry's first Forest School program where our focus is reconnecting children to the great outdoors. Located at 17838 McPhail Road in St. Andrews West, Ontario, it's just a short 15-minute drive north of Cornwall. The school takes place on 30 acres of beautiful forested land including a beaver dam, groomed trails, two ponds, natural playscapes, and a cozy yurt as home base.

 

Children spend most of their day outdoors where they are given unhurried time to engage in risky play, collaborative creation, and independent reflection. As a complement to children’s home or school-based academic learning, Wildflower Forest & Nature School will give children the opportunity to learn and work on essential skills that are unique to the Forest School method.

Our mission

Wildflower Forest & Nature School’s mission is to provide a safe and stimulating environment where children can foster a deep connection with themselves, others and most importantly, nature.

Our vision

Our vision is to build an inclusive community for the families of S.D.&G. to reconnect with nature. We want to give as many children as possible regular access to quality outdoor play so we can help create happy and healthy nature lovers. Wildflower believes that children who love nature, become adults who love nature, which will in turn contribute to the sustainability of our world.
