Spend the day learning at Ever Wilder
Our goal is to make learning about nature fun! We have a passion for educating kids about nature. We offer an entirely outdoor 90 minute and 3 hour interactive ecology program for ages 5 and older. We have a range of activities to offer depending on your groups ages.
Typically we spend our time outside or under the barn looking closely at plants, insects, animals and more. Email [email protected]



Join our Facebook group and learn about local meet-ups
Our group, dubbed the “North Georgia Ecology Club”, is currently looking for places to explore and help document local species of plants, animals and more. Let us know if you have a property or know of a place! We are looking for different ecosystems such as field/meadow, riverbank, high elevations, bogs, mature forest and yards. Email [email protected] for more information.
