The Cascadia Experience is a Portland, Oregon-based startup social enterprise that produces two-night, three-day camping programs for families looking to "reconnect" with nature. Through sustainability and conversation-oriented service-based projects during the trips, Cascadia aims to serve as an educational experience that serves as a catalyst in cultivating community building and awareness of the ecosystems challenges.
The Cascadia Experience programs include educational content and activities and the logistics planning, equipment and coordination of the trips, which also aim to spur family bonding and healthy lifestyle habits.
The Cascadia Experience is notably an alumnus member of Portland State University Social Innovation Incubator, and aims to create social and environmental impact through educating consumers.
