Our Land
A Living Classroom Along the White Salmon River
WildWalker Village is rooted in a 12-acre piece of land along the White Salmon River that our family has been lovingly tending for the past six years.
From the beginning, this place has been imagined as more than a property. It is a gathering place—a place for children, families, and community to come together in relationship with the land and one another.
Over the years, we have slowly built spaces that invite connection in every season:
A cozy yurt with a woodstove where we gather during the colder months for stories, warmth, making, and shared meals.
Outdoor kitchens and gathering spaces where food is prepared, skills are shared, and community is created around the rhythms of the seasons.
A beautiful garden that has been tended by many hands, where children and adults alike learn about growing food, caring for the soil, and the gifts of working together.
Trails, forests, fields, and wild spaces that invite exploration, adventure, imagination, and quiet moments of connection.
This land has already been shaped by years of gatherings, celebrations, workshops, and community care. WildWalker grows from that foundation.
We believe children learn deeply when they have a place to belong—a place where they can return again and again, notice the changing seasons, develop relationships with the more-than-human world, and understand themselves as part of a larger ecosystem.
This land is our first teacher.
We are honored to continue listening, learning, and caring for it together.
