Natureversity Outdoor School

We’ve hiked McKinney Falls a dozen times or more, but it felt like seeing an old friend for the first time when we went yesterday with the Buzz Mill Lumber Society crew and had the gift of Chris showing us around. His knowledge across so many fields and irrepressible enthusiasm for the outdoors and nature made it a riveting, captivating experience. If you’re reading this and weren’t there, I’m sorry, but luckily for all of us, he does these things regularly. See you at one of them. 👍

I've know Chris Hyde for nearly five years and have had the great honor of working side by side with him as well as being taught directly from him. He is both knowledgeable and engaging. Some of the topics we have covered include natural pigments, and primitive weapons -- atlatl, spears and bows. I would definitely recommend taking classes with Natureversity, you won't be disappointed!

Took the pottery class and it was exhilerating! Came home with some unique home made pieces that were hand crafted with locally harvested clay. The instructor really knows his subject and keeps you tuned in with his passion. Wish more educators knew how to make a class so fun and interesting! Definitely going to take more classes and tell my friends about my great experience! Wow!

Chris is extremely knowledgeable and an expert at primitive skills, nature and wilderness connection. I highly recommend him as an instructor. I originally met him as my lead instructor for a spring foraging class. I have seen him with children and adults, and he has talents working with people of all ages. This is not just his business, but his passion. He walks the walk and is enjoying these skills even on his free time. Chris is the type of person you want instructing you! He is trustworthy and experienced. I highly recommend any program, class, or workshop with him!

Highly recommend! Chris is a super fun teacher. He gets the kids so excited while being incredibly educational ♡ Very engaging with all age groups including adults. I've been taking classes from him for years, do it!
