What are Wild Walks?

We believe that connection to nature should not be limited only to those who have disposable income. We operate public group walks on a pay what you can model. The suggested donation for a walk is $10-15 per person, but any amount is appreciated. Any donations received are put toward funding additional walks.

We endeavor to create Wild Walks to be as inclusive and accessible as possible. We include accessibility information in each registration form so participants know what to expect. If you wish to discuss accessibility needs or have questions, please contact us. 

The land upon which we hold our wild walks is part of the traditional territory of the Lenni-Lenape, called “Lenapehoking.” The Lenape People lived in harmony with one another upon this territory for thousands of years. During the colonial era and early federal period, many were removed west and north, but some also remain among the continuing historical tribal communities of the region: The Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation; the Ramapough Lenape Nation; and the Powhatan Renape Nation, The Nanticoke of Millsboro Delaware, and the Lenape of Cheswold Delaware. We acknowledge the Lenni-Lenape as the original people of this land and their continuing relationship with their territory. In our acknowledgment of the continued presence of Lenape people in their homeland, we affirm the aspiration of the great Lenape Chief Tamanend, that there be harmony between the indigenous people of this land and the descendants of the immigrants to this land, “as long as the rivers and creeks flow, and the sun, moon, and stars shine."
