The Grove
The Grove is a supportive, nature-based training space for women ages 18-99 to grow confident and comfortable outdoors. Through weekly gatherings and shared experiences, we equip women with the skills and community to step outside with confidence—both for themselves and their families.
The Grove is a training-focused community designed to help nature-loving women feel confident, capable, and at home in the outdoors. Each week, we explore practical skills, seasonal rhythms, and meaningful topics centered around both nature and outdoor skills, creating a space that is both educational and deeply supportive.
This is more than a class—it’s a community. We walk alongside one another as we learn, practice, and grow in confidence together. Women are welcome to bring their children to weekly meeting days, allowing learning to happen in real life, alongside family, while setting examples for continued learning into adulthood.
In addition to weekly gatherings, The Grove offers opportunities for deeper connection through weekend retreats, family camping trips and community travel experiences. These intentional times create space for rest, renewal, and skill-building in a supportive, encouraging environment. Grove members receive FREE ACCESS to all WanderWild Restore Outdoors classes, including outdoor sunrise stretch yoga classes and moss + mug forest therapy classes. Grove members also receive large discounts on retreats, expeditions, and other collective events.
Our goal is simple: to equip and support women as they step outside—helping them feel prepared, confident, and connected in the natural world.
