Walking together

Exploring grief in the natural world helps people heal.

At Wild Grief, we merge peer support with the healing power of nature. We’ve witnessed countless transformations as people engage with their grief in a natural setting alongside others on similar journeys. Simply walking together, being under the trees, and doing reflective activities leads to release, relief, and rootedness.

By offering free, outdoor experiences for teens, young adults, families, and all-ages groups, we help more people find a place where they can remember, process, and discover a path to healing.

We believe that:

  • It’s important to acknowledge death and engage with loss.

  • Nature heals.

  • Community connections are powerful.

  • Grief support should be available to everyone.

  • Healing is possible.


Wild Grief’s Mission

We facilitate peer groups for children and adults who are grieving a death by creating the space for sharing, connection, and healing in nature.
