Flying Deer Nature Center in New Lebanon, NY has been mentoring children, teens, and families in the ways of the earth since 1995.
FDNC has distinguished itself through the creativity of its programs and its deep connections to nature. Programs operated by Flying Deer include wilderness adventures for women, weekly wilderness mentoring for boys, single gender adolescent rite of passage programs, and co-ed programs for homeschoolers.

Flying Deer Day is taking place June 21 from 11 am to 5 pm. It’s an annual community celebration for all ages, with live and silent auction, BBQ, Olympic Games, silent auction and special live auction event, nature stations, egg toss, herbal cream-making, and more! All proceeds benefit our Financial Assistance Program, ensuring that as many kids as possible have access to nature education and connection.
