What if childhood had more room to breathe?
Looking for inspiration on your journey as a Nature Educator? Come hear the story behind Apple Blossom Village—how it began, what it means to hold school in yurts, and what becomes possible when we create spaces where children can slow down, explore, and simply be.
Dacia is a 2026–27 Minnesota Initiators Fellow with more than 20 years of experience working with children and families, including 10 years of teaching children outdoors.
Through her warm, relatable, and inspiring story, Dacia shares the joys, challenges, and lessons learned along the way—inviting educators, parents, and leaders to reconnect with the magic of childhood and imagine new ways to nurture it.
Leave inspired to slow down, think differently, and create spaces where children can experience freedom, wonder, and connection to the natural world.
