Step 1: Start a Course
The Fly Agaric
Start this course for free and learn how we got this mushroom and it's uses completely wrong.
Edible Plants
With guidance, you can eat the grasses, weeds and nuts in the wild, but knowledge is key.
Fungi in a Day
In just one day you can learn to identify the safest and easiest mushrooms to eat in your area.
Step 2: Let us Guide You
Everyone can use a coach, no matter in sports or in learning the science of our world. We can help show you the skills and learning modules that will help you get where you want to be.
This may include...
- helping you see things you couldn't see before
- learn foraging skills when it might have been too daunting.
- develop skills to make your own wild recipes
- build a lifestyle that reconnects them with the natural world
The first call can help us explore your goals and map out a personal learning path.
From there you might continue with:
- More coaching
- Individual courses
- Our Books
- A field excursion

RECAP: THE NATURALIST PATH
A Guided 3 Step Approach to Connecting to Nature
STEP 1: Simply start a course to introduce the core knowledge every naturalist should understand. They are designed to be practical, engaging, and immediately useful in the field.
STEP 2: Work with a guide who can listen to your interests and who has expert knowledge and connections to get you to the next step.
Step 3: Come with us on a trip and fast-track your knowledge, enjoy an amazing location, and meet like-minded people doing the same thing.
Community
Many people feel the pull toward nature but do not know where to begin. The Naturalist Path is a simple way to move from curiosity to confidence. It blends foundational courses, immersive field experiences, and optional one-on-one guidance so that you can learn at a pace that feels natural.
Rather than overwhelming you with information, this path introduces the essentials first. As your awareness grows, you begin to see more patterns, more connections, and more possibilities in the natural world.
You can start anywhere along the path. Some begin with a single course. Others join an expedition. Many choose to work directly with Rob to build a personal learning journey.
