Seattle Nature Adventures

Nature of the Pacific Northwest
An education program for homeschoolers
*Currently not in operation*

Wednesdays 9am-1:30pm

At Seattle Nature Adventures, we study forest and marine organisms and their habitats. Each week, we visit a local natural area in South or West Seattle for field study, including Seward Park, Alki, Dead Horse Canyon, and others. Students meet at our class location (4108 48th Ave S) OR our agreed upon meeting spot for the day. A field journal is kept to keep track of all their observations from the adventures we go on!
