Help Grow Longleaf Learning Collective!
Longleaf Learning Collective is a non-profit organization dedicated to building and supporting communities through outdoor programs and immersive nature experiences.
We offer opportunities for people of all ages to connect with nature and learn new skills. Our goal is to empower individuals to become stewards of the environment while fostering a sense of belonging and connection within our community. We strive to continuously grow as an organization that inspires lifelong learning and love for nature.
We host camping retreats as well as weekly outdoor classes for children 0-10. Our goal is to continue this effort and expand our impact by offering nature programming for children that would not otherwise have the opportunity.
Donations to Longleaf Learning Collective will go right back into the community through scholarships for kids and teacher training as our programs grow. We are thrilled to be doing this work and are honored by your support as we continue our mission.

Our Work Matters
Environmental education works. The benefits of outdoor learning and environmental education are remarkable and well-documented. Research shows that regular time in nature can make us healthier, happier, smarter, and better stewards of the environment. That makes environmental education just as important for our participants as it is for the planet.
Learners of all ages, from infancy through adulthood, can benefit from the connection to and understanding of our environments that comes from environmental education. Implementing nature-based programming can build the foundation for lifelong engagement.
