Fresh Air Families is going to hike & play through the Winter. See our schedule below and join our Facebook group for the most up-to-date information.
Fresh Air Families is a weekly program for parents to explore local trails and parks while creating community, embracing the benefits of fresh air, and learning more about our beautiful valley
With winter in the air, we are calling on our incredible community to participate in a gently used baby/kids clothing drive to enable families to be able to stay cozy with their little ones this winter while participating with Roots.
If you have any gently used winter items (newborn - toddler), please send us an email to coordinate dropping them off at Roots.
* Join us for a special parents only Cross Country Ski on Sunday, December 11 at 11 AM. REGISTER HERE.

At Roots we believe getting outside is vital to a new parent's health and well-being. Not only does it provide a change of scenery which can be so desperately needed, but connecting with nature helps us get in touch with our humanity. Getting outdoors can ground us, or lift us up, or simply allow us to breathe. You don't have to be a Ridge Runner or an extreme climber to feel the benefits of wind in your hair, sun on your face, and dirt beneath your feet. Join us as we get together to explore the trails around Bozeman with no judgement and no expectations. This group welcomes all families, including expecting families – no previous experience hiking is required.
All hikes will meet at the trailhead at 9:45, but please join our Facebook group for the most up-to-date information.

Our Winter Fresh Air Families gatherings will be lead by Celina Kumpf. Celina is a sewing educator and all-round maker who is passionate about teaching people the skills to be able to create wardrobes that empower them to feel comfortable and confident in their bodies. She and her partner Danny are new parents to their spirited toddler Josephine and have been so grateful for all the Roots programs that have supported their journey into parenthood. Celina is a strong believer in the saying “there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing” and she can’t wait to layer up to enjoy the beauty and magic of a Bozeman winter with Fresh Air Families! |
Fresh Air Families creates community and welcomes all types of parents to embrace the benefits of fresh air while instilling a love of nature in our children. Some of us are in a season of giving and some of us are in a season of receiving. After so many miles on the trails together, it will all even out. You can hike at your own pace, stop for snacks, break off into groups, turn around at any time, and come to as many or as little hikes as you want. The whole family is always welcome.
