Third Nature

Come sit around the fire with us this Labor Day Weekend 🔥

Over the years, mornings at camp have looked like guided yoga flows, primal movement, acro, and everything in between. Imagine slow mornings, deep breaths, and moving your body in a way that brings you back to yourself. It’s grounding into the present. It’s stepping into confidence. It’s reconnecting - with your body, your intuition, and the moment. Stay tuned for some new morning movement offerings we’re cooking up for Summer Camp 2026 👀

Imagine meeting a group of strangers, sitting around a fire, and somehow it all feels easy. You’re laughing, sharing stories, and having conversations that are deep but still light and fun…like you’ve known each other way longer than just a few hours. As the night stretches on, you start to feel more like you again. And then - there’s a dance party 💃 #thirdnature #thirdnaturesummercamp #campfireconnections #natureretreat #summercampvibes

Less scrolling, more living. Less noise, more presence. Less pressure, more peace. Just people, moments, and the kind of memories you don’t need Wi-Fi to hold onto. That’s what Third Nature Summer Camp is all about. 🌿

Not escaping life… just taking a breath, to come back feeling rejuvenated 🌿 #summercamp

Did someone say adult summer camp?! Join us this Labor Day Weekend for the 11th annual Third Nature Summer Camp 🏕️ Stay tuned for more of what we’re cooking up for the best weekend of the year 😎

Feeling chilly? How bout some hot yoga on the beach? Songs by the toasty campfire or warm hugs from a new life long friend? Currently yearning for the warmth that @thirdnature_ brings to this world.

On cold days like today, there’s a deep longing for the summer days at @thirdnature_ and the warmth it brings to the body, mind, and soul. A place where people arrive as they are and leave feeling more inspired, more grounded, and more connected to themselves and each other. Third Nature isn’t just a adult summer camp retreat. It’s a space built for real conversations, curiosity, play, reflection, and growth. A place where strangers become friends, vulnerability becomes strength, and perspective shifts in ways that stay with you long after you leave. Grateful to have photographed such a meaningful experience and captured the heart behind it.

After Summer Camp 2024, Creed Leffler, a participant and new friend who was born with cerebral palsy, called me with a crazy idea. “I want to invite Kacey Musgraves to Third Nature Summer Camp.” I laughed, and said something along the lines of, “Isn’t she like, really famous?” Creed replied without hesitation. “What are you, chicken?” He went on to explain the thought behind his idea… A lot of people in the Third Nature community are fans of Kacey’s music because the lyrics explore themes of authenticity, acceptance, and living on your own terms. The emotional honesty and introspection feels similar to what participants get to experience for themselves at camp. So Creed wanted to invite Kacey the human - not Kacey the famous musician - to experience that for herself. In his vision, Creed paints camp as a place where anyone - including someone like Kacey Musgraves - can show up as their true, full selves, expressing parts of them that they don’t always get to express. Creed would say, “How refreshing it must be for someone who’s always performing, to get a chance to just be.” If you know Creed, you know he is spiritually connected and cares deeply about the people and causes he’s passionate about. He’s also wildly ambitious and a marketing genius. Everyone could use a friend like Creed. After some collaborative brainstorming, we came up with a plan - we would gather a bunch of Kacey fans at Summer Camp 2025, and record a video inviting her to Summer Camp 2026. The result is this video. Thank you to those at the Sunday night campfire who immediately raised their hands to be part of this, and “nailed it” in one take (while embracing our imperfections) Cheers to being less of a chicken. And @spaceykacey , we hope to see you at camp! #thirdnature #adultsummercamp #kaceymusgraves #chooseyourownadventure #kaceymusgraveschooseyourownadventure

Too social for social media

So very special to host our friends @thirdnature_ this past Labor Day Weekend for their Adult Summer Camp! Three days filled with connection, play, workshops, and soaking in the spirit of camp! Founded by Scatico alum Brian Helfman, Third Nature holds a particularly special place in our hearts and we love getting to see their community take advantage of our campus!
