Osiyo and Welcome!

School Programs

The school programs provide an alternative to an off-site field trip.  Our educational program directors will provide your school with an extensive look into Native American history and culture.

Our programs are highly interactive. They touch upon your imagination through games and stories that guide you through Native American culture. 

Each lecturer brings years of school instructional experience and have always received the highest reviews from their participants. Please visit our School Program section and see some of the wonderful things students and teachers have had to say about our program.

Tips for the Season

Its starting to warm up and that means that reptiles of all sorts are coming out to enjoy the sun, including rattlesnakes.  When you go out on the trail make sure to bring a long sturdy walking stick with you.  If you encounter a rattlesnake place the walking stick between you and the snake and slowly back away.  If the snake is startled and strikes it is more likely to go for the stick, since its closer to them. 

The World Around Us

This portion of the site is a child friendly area filled with lots of resources on the world around.  Parents, be sure to check out this area with your kids since it is filled with things both you and your child will enjoy!

Nature Hikes

Join our native guides along local Ventura County trails. Our hikes are ideal for scouting groups and club outings.

Our nature hike offers a variety of activities, including learning about which plants are helpful and  which to avoid.  In addition to plant identification Native stories about animals and nature are shared.
