About Us

Oona Adventures was born out of our love for the North Coast! Based in the community of Oona River on Porcher Island, we are a small team dedicated to providing inclusive, inspiring, and safe adventures for people of all ages. At Oona Adventures we believe that creativity and time in nature should go hand in hand. Our unique retreats provide the perfect atmosphere for you to reconnect with the great outdoors!

Your Hosts, Emily and Sarah

Emily Schaffer 

 

 

Emily is a big fan of messy creativity. She believes that the process of creating should be as fulfilling as the final product. Often with ink up to her elbows or bits of collage strewn around her workspace, she gravitates towards tactile crafts. She loves printmaking and book binding. With a passion for hosting, Emily is often found in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes.

​

In her free time, Emily enjoys watching her chickens run around the yard, going on weekend adventures and dreaming up new meals to make for her friends and family. 

Sarah Hughes 

​

 

With a background in floral design, Sarah delights in collaborating with nature's beauty and often uses found and foraged materials in her art. She finds inspiration everywhere in nature and is always experimenting with new craft forms. Right now, she's found a home in needle felting.

​

When she's not crafting, Sarah enjoys exploring Oona's trails with her husband and their rescue dog Nora, attending community potlucks, and attempting to master the art of slow living.
