ConnectByNature is located on land which is the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabeg peoples. This territory is covered by the Upper Canada Treaties and is within the land protected by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum agreement. Today this land is home to many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit Peoples. We are reminded that our great standard of living here in Pelham, Ontario is directly related to the resources and friendship of Indigenous people.

Our Approach

We draw upon nature's intelligence and interactions with wildlife and horses to build resilience and promote social- emotional health and wellbeing. By cultivating  connections and relationships with nature and horses children and youth become more self aware, better attuned to others and the environment around them, and expand their circles of belonging.
