Programs & Events

We offer a variety of programs and events designed to calm and enrich the body and mind. Our goal is to inspire others to radiate positivity and create a ripple effect throughout their relationships to themselves, to others, and to the communities they serve.  

If you have an idea for a program or event, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always open to working together to create new experiences! 

Led by Cree, a community health advocate, Lou, a seasoned yogi, and Karl, a meditation master, this program is designed to inspire a passion for healthy living, nature and mindful meditation.

The program includes forest bathing, mindful meditation, an introduction to healthy living and diet, yoga, music, and social gatherings around the fire. 

OOTB’s fundamentals incorporate fur babies as part of the growth of an individual or a family. Through our SNIFFari Adventure Program, we provide sessions guided by certified professional dog trainer and coach Melanie Chin. She focuses on helping pet parents build a strong bond through awareness, identifying personalities and formulating a manageable relationship approach.  

Building communities is one of OOTB’s core values. Every month, we invite members of the community to join us for workshops to learn new skills, such as foraging, forest survival and management, bee-keeping, first aid, and fire prevention and management. 

Each event will be dedicated to support community initiative programs, including Family Transition Place, Dufferin Multicultural Foundation, Town of Mono Artists Foundation, Choices Youth Centre, seniors services and special needs programs.

This initiative is designed to teach leaders and managers how to create positive workplaces. OOTB strives to build a stronger workforce through Minute to Win It, headed by a community champion leader Jessie.

The program uses challenges to engage the competitive spirit, and to encourage out-of-the box thinking and creative problem-solving techniques. These activities foster fun, playful competition and unexpected surprises!   

OOTB believes in growth through action. This program is designed to teach community groups how to strengthen and promote their initiatives by crafting a desired pathway to success.  This includes recognizing strengths towards building stronger participation of each member, as well as identifying inspiration and drive. 

One of our missions is to raise funds for single parents or caregivers with financial limitations but who truly deserve a break. OOTB strongly promotes paying it forward and sharing the benefits of our programs to those who cannot afford it but are well-deserving. Beneficiaries must be referred by registered community groups or institutions. 

OOTB Lifestyle Farm is also an events venue. We are eager to accommodate our clients’ needs and help them realize their  vision in line with the ecological footprints of the property.
