There was time when people forgot. They lost their connection to their family and their land. The Remembering was the most terrible and beautiful time in human history. You only have to look upon the haunted crumbling towers or how this Valley is still criss crossed by broken iron roads. They are fading reminders of how tall we dared to climb and how hard we finally fell. Our Arrow was flying towards our own destruction. The Remembering was a choice to turn it's flight around.

Many years later, four Ancient Guilds have arisen: The Rangers live to protect and revive the village. The Mariners spread the message of respect for the waters across the seven seas of this earth and the Artisans tell the tale, helping us Remember our Story. Yet it is the Wilders who will Restore the Earth!

This is urban homesteading at it's ultimate. Learn real world skills of self-sufficiency for your family that you can use now and in the city!

The Remembering was the word for what the people once called the apocalypse. Now, backyard goats have taken over the streets, home gardens feed the city and people have remembered what its like to be a village and a tribe again. But all is not perfect, hordes of fixie-bicycle gangs roam the old city and flocks of 10-foot tall mutant chickens are on the loose.

Wilder Ways: A Camp Like No Other

The Trackers Wilders Guild takes you past the trappings of civilization and into a world of both personal and familial self-sufficiency. We cover wild plants and their use ranging from food, utilitarian to medicinal. We embark on hands-on homesteading projects related to pantry preservation, cheese making and sustenance gardening.

Finally we learn about the Wilders Garden, a way or restoring the land around us. We delve deep into crazy fringe gardening and natural building such as growing mushrooms to break up asphalt and building tree houses out of reused materials. We focus on real world methods of healing the lands we live, bringing them back to a new world of thriving diversity and life.

And of course we also cover the best ways to protect you homestead from the steampunk airship fleet, the raiding Rovers and the bandit Chickenboys that ride the post-apocalyptic prairie.

The Wilders

The Wilders are caretakers. They tend to the balance of their village. They listen to the land as they help abundance flow. They guide the needs of the people into harmony with the needs of all life around them.

The tools of a Wilder are remediation through mycology, animals, plants and life itself. They change the land by asking and courting certain ways of life to grow and take root.

The Remembering is here and its time to ask ourselves the question: Do we own the land or do we belong to it? A place can be like our family, familiar and sewn into the day to day of our lives. As people we can define ourselves by how we care for that family and village. This kinship is reflected in how we tend to the Earth and the Wild that sustains us.
