Born from the book, "Camping Noire: the black girls guide to surviving a weekend unplugged", we are muting the myth that black women don't camp.  Though our focus is camping, we host a series of outdoor events created to inspire women of color to reconnect with mother nature.  We are headquarted in NJ. "Camping Noire" will be on a bookshelf near you in June 2019.
