Free Spirit Forest and Nature School is Southern Georgian Bay’s only not-for-profit, Forest School Canada and Ministry of Education certified private school program. We offer quality nature programming in Collingwood, Wasaga Beach, Meaford and Duntroon ON.
Collingwood – Bygone Days Heritage Village (879 Sixth St)
This 86 acre property on the outskirts of Collingwood offers tons to explore. Complete with multiple forests, ponds, a sugar shack and heritage village, the adventure never ends. We even use a 19th century school house and prospector tent as our home bases!
Wasaga Beach – FS Headquarters (28 Sunset Court)
This wonderful mixed forest of oak and towering pine is nestled beside the Nottawasaga River. It is the perfect backdrop for discovery and connects us with the adjacent Provincial Park – this impressive green space is eager to be explored!
Meaford – Memorial Park (179 Grant Ave)
Right in the heart of Meaford lies this picturesque park and woodland walking trails. Even more, this wonderful green space runs along the beautiful Georgian Bay shoreline. We meet at the Kin Hall but spend most our time in the huge adjacent forest courtesy of the Moore Family. It’s Nature’s ultimate playground just waiting to be uncovered!
