We strive to "live" in the wilderness, rather than "survive" it to get back to civilization.
 
At Four Seasons Prehistoric Projects we aim to live sustainably and in harmony with the Earth. We believe that this is best achieved not by desperately waiting for new technologies to emerge but by embracing the knowledge and wisdom of our ancestors who lived that way for many thousands of years.
 



Therefore, our programs focus on re-kindling and applying the practical skills based on ancient knowledge, experiencing the inter-dependency necessary in community living, and nurturing an appreciation for the Earth as a living organism. We do this through intensive hands-on wilderness living skills training, teaching people how to harvest and transform the gifts of nature for everyday needs such as tools, fire, shelter, food.... in a conscientious and sustainable manner, as the ancients did.


 The skills we have to offer include
  • wild edible and medicinal plants,
  • large animal processing,
  • structure building,
  • bow and arrow making,
  • hunting and trapping methods,
  • hide tanning,
  • clothing and moccasin making,
  • stone and bone tools,
  • horse packing,
  • basketry and containers.


Our goal is to be able to live sustainably at a primitive (i.e., simple) level of technology year long. We dream of a village of people sharing our lives in the arms of our generous and abundant Mother Earth. To reach this goal, we are constantly learning ancestral ways and teaching others who share similar aspirations in week-long intensive classes culminating in immersion projects lasting several months in which we live completely sustainably at a stone-age level of technology. Right now we are leading month-long primitive-living experiments and we will keep on increasing the length of these experiences until we reach our ultimate goal. We hope you will join us in this amazing adventure.
