Teen Skills n' Chill

Teen Skills n’ Chill is the perfect way for teens (ages 13–17) to stay connected to nature, develop outdoor skills, and build community—all while balancing their busy high school schedules. Whether you’re continuing your Pine journey or joining for the first time, this program offers a relaxed and supportive space to explore, create, and grow with peers and experienced mentors.

Each week, participants gather to sip wild-crafted teas, work on long-term nature craft projects, explore local parks, and deepen their knowledge of plants, animals, and outdoor skills. There’s plenty of time to hang out, laugh, and connect, making this program a unique blend of challenge and chill.

What to expect:

• Get encouragement to continue learning independently between sessions
• Develop leadership and mentorship skills alongside Pine mentors
• Create long-term craft projects and wilderness tools
• Explore parks in both East and West Toronto
• Dive into advanced naturalist knowledge
