Multi-night expeditions provide opportunities for growth, grit, and joy on the serene coast of Maine. 9 campers and 3 dedicated outdoor & kid professionals will travel in sea kayaks and island camp, develop interpersonal skills, and connect with friends and nature in a truly restorative way.
Camper Experience:
Hearty Roots Adventure Camps foster mindfulness and resilience for Maine youth through a unique fusion of outdoor adventure programming and social-emotional experiences. Relationship building, exploring, recreating, journaling, yoga, and mindfulness activities are all a part of the recipe for programming that not only encourages positive affirmation, meaningful connections, and healthy mindsets, it provides a safe space for all participants to go on a journey of self-discovery. All camps culminate in a Closing Circle where campers reflect upon and share their experiences with each other and their families!
Hearty Roots Multi-night Expeditions are ideal for participants who are ready to take their adventures to the next level and are comfortable spending multiple nights away from home while sleeping in a tent.
*We Believe in Inclusivity. “Girls” refers to gender expansive youth and we welcome all gender identities.
