Our financial aid philosophy is take what you need and give what you can. We recognize that there are economic hardships, and we want to be accessible to all, so we ask that you pay whatever it is that you can.
The more you can pay, the more children we are able to extend aid to. Before you request financial aid we ask families to consider if there are family members or friends who might help provide a scholarship to your family for this program.
While nobody has ever been turned away for lack of funds, our ability to accommodate financial aid requests rests on the strength of our program enrollment and the generosity of the individuals, businesses and foundations that partner with Wild Earth to make financial aid possible.
We're in this together! Many of us are stretching ourselves to make sure that cost doesn't get in the way of anyone playing, exploring and learning in nature.
Requests for financial aid are processed alongside your registration. This enables you to reserve a space in the program while our team is reviewing aid requests. Register now and reserve your space in Original Instructions: Unplugged Overnight For Adults today.
Drop us an email or give us a call and we'll be happy to answer your questions.

We will disconnect to reconnect, leaving behind our computers, cell phones, social media, clocks, credit card info and adult cares… and trade them in for wild games, barefoot wandering in the woods, tracking wild animals, spending time in solitude, cooking over an open fire together and sleeping under the stars.
Through it all, we will create a community together, playing, learning, cooking, eating, singing and storytelling. You will have the opportunity to remember your original instructions, to remember yourself, and say YES to life.
“The Original Instructions celebrate our interdependence and interconnection with the diversity of life and one another. They help us remember who we are, that we are all Indigenous to a place not so many generations ago.”
Kenny Ausubel, Original Instructions
David worked as a wealth advisor on Wall Street for twelve years before realizing a life dream – fully sharing in the care and parenting of his three children, and creating a small family farm. Today, the Brownsteins raise dairy cows, goats, chickens, bees and vegetables in season.
In 2004, David co-founded and, today, is the Executive Director of Wild Earth, where he seeks to regenerate healthy community culture and create opportunities for people to connect with themselves, each other and the Earth. David also maintains an active mentoring & counseling practice called Root Connections, where he helps individuals, couples, groups, community and business leaders identify and manifest their unique vision.
Eden grew up in a small intentional community (Kibbutz) in the Israeli desert. From a young age he was wandering the wilderness, farming, and participating in communal living. After working as a pre-school teacher and a counselor for troubled youth, Eden went on to deepening his studies in nature awareness, Permaculture and native survival skills in the United States. Eden also spent several years traveling worldwide, learning traditional living skills from indigenous cultures in Central America, Asia, India and New-Zealand, seeking to understand the relationship between social and inner sustainability, between ancient and modern lifestyles, the natural world and the wild-within.
In 2010 Eden founded True Nature, an education center and sustainable farm, with the intention of creating a learning-circle and community for exploring the deeper aspects of sustainability, weaving together nature awareness, viable living skills and personal regeneration.
