New Earth Kids: Teens Connect at Ecocamp

Host Nan Franzblau heads into the Gila National Forest to visit Ecocamp, a four-day wilderness camp for teenagers hosted by the Upper Gila Watershed Alliance.  Campers describe skills they have learned, such as how to build a fire from scratch, which forest plants are edible, and how to identify their bird neighbors.  As participants dig deeper into their experiences, they share how their time spent at Ecocamp has strengthened their connections to nature, each other, and themselves.
