Think Like Nature

Nature Masterminds see the world differently.

We are on a mission to get students (really anyone) to see nature as their coolest teacher.

With our Nature Masterminds® platform, you can teach and inspire others to unlock nature's genius through biomimicry!

Originally designed for non-profit institutions, educators and groups who serve K-8 learners, our innovative camps, curriculum, and experiences show you ways to use nature’s strategies to tackle modern challenges. Through hands-on projects, engaging videos, and outdoor activities, any group can spark creativity and innovation through time spent in nature!

We are part of a global community focused on biomimicry.

Nature Masterminds® is proud to be part of AskNature.org, a global community database and field guide to the natural world, with a focus on biomimicry. AskNature is ideal for students, educators, citizen scientists, and innovators. It helps you discover how life on Earth has solved problems, offering real-world ideas that spark learning and support creative, nature-inspired solutions.

“Megan, (my 4th grade daughter), had a great time at the Eco-STEM camp last week. It was really nice to see her so excited about science - I never thought much about the inside of a strawberry, celery, or lima bean until she spent time describing to me, and we continue to monitor how the seed planted in her biome is doing!”
