Interested in becoming a member?
Our members envision a mycelial network of humans on ancestral Coast Salish land that engage their communities in nature connection experiences, promote cultural repair, and model the re-storying of the relationships between humans and the earth. Membership is open to all.
Members support the organization by volunteering their skills and talents, participating in member gatherings, and lending their voices to decision-making. True to any relationship based in reciprocity, membership comes with responsibility as well as benefits.

The Scandinavian Forest Therapy Institute
Feel free to contact us directly if your training organization isn’t represented here.
