Testimonials
“Devon loved her week of sleep-away camp! It was a special and magical experience in an amazing setting and she wants to go back every summer. She loved the campfire stories, hiking and learning about edible plants, and sewing. The girls in the group really connected which made it even more special. Julia and the other camp counselors were very kind and attentive. Devon would recommend the camp to anyone who loves nature and she's excited to camp again this summer! Thank you for the wonderful experience and memories!”

“Family camp at Samsara Ridge is our daughter's favorite summer ritual, hands-down, and one that our entire family has looked forward to each of the past three years. The chance to witness our child's joy in "going wild" for the weekend comes hand in hand with the chance to witness the beauty and transformation of the place itself. It is our annual opportunity to be nourished by nature, community, and the incredible loving care that Julia has put into every aspect of the experience.“

“Mal loved the camp and it was so good for him last summer. It was wonderful to see him become independent and enjoy the outdoors and overcome anxiety. I grew up playing in the woods, enjoying nature, and catching toads— I want that for him. He needs something different from school that still enables him to grow.“

“It’s incredible to see her explore and the influence being with you has had—she tells me the things she knows now because of you and I want her to keep learning this love of our earth and the nature surrounding us.”

“Forest School has been such a gift for our family-- especially our adventurous 3 year old! We were looking for an easy to integrate preschool program into our lives and we were over the moon with this offering! Julia provides the space for children to explore, enjoy nature and one another, and simply be! Our daughter talks about her school and her friends all the time and wakes up ready to adventure together!“

“The New Moon Alchemy program is pure magic ! Not one did it feel divinely timed, Julia guides a profound and sacred journey to embrace the inner voice. Having this ps sacred space for being seen and heard on such a deep level feels like an enormous blessing in life. Julia is a beautiful spirit to guide this journey and create the nurturing space for transformations to emerge!!“

“Our son participated in Julia’s camp last summer and it was a very memorable experience for him. He loved the freedom and exploratory nature of the week spent outside building forts, climbing and playing. Highly recommend Wilderness Awakening camps!”

“Family Camp is a tradition we look forward to returning to each year. It gives our family a protected pocket of togetherness, grounding, and nature in an eased setting. The land is ideal and inspiring - perfect environment for decompressing adults and curious little ones. This intentional weekend allows our family to unwind and come back to ourselves… with others! “
