As a former park ranger and naturalist, Terri is passionate about sharing the outdoors with others. Her greatest joy is watching the excitement on the faces of children as they discover a new animal, plant, or mushroom in nature. She is certified in Wilderness First Aid and CPR, and brings her experience as a trainer and licensed counselor into the work we do at Camp Foxfire. She believes in the importance of spending quiet time outdoors to help ease anxiety and other mental health concerns, and often takes a break from the hard work of managing a farm to just sit and reflect on our beautiful world - which our next generations must actively protect for their future!
REGISTRATION is now OPEN!
We can't wait to see you at Camp Foxfire this winter break!
Meet our Camp Leaders
Our Camp Staff is a gaggle of experienced women (all moms) who have come together to create a fantastic outdoor summer program at Foxfire Woods and Farm. All staff have clean background checks, are up to date in first aid and CPR, and have completed our camp training, including child safety and mandated reporter. CITs are older children at camp, learning to take on leadership.
Alison Hux, 2021 Camp Foxfire Director, has worked as a Naturalist, outdoor educator, and nature nerd since 2004 (officially at least!) A Georgia Native, Ms. Ali grew up on the banks of the Chattahoochee, spent summers at Girl Scout camp, weekends mucking stalls in exchange for riding lessons, and a decade working as a veterinary assistant in small animal practices.
Ms. Ali is passionate about place-based education; creating future conservationists by securing a love for the land in all children. She has completed certifications for KHT Montessori, Growing Up Wild, and Project Learning Tree and is a self-proclaimed continuing education junkie. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts and Biology from GA Southern University, and her hobbies include saving turtles from cars, playing tag, and running a small homestead and micro dairy. Alison's family includes her hiking loving husband, her goat-whisperer, homeschooled daughter, and more than a dozen farm animals.
We had a great time last January at Camp Foxfire's First Winter Wizard Camp:
