For $25 a month

You'll support original music for an upcoming episode—composed by a professional musician—that captures the emotional throughline of each season.

For $50 a month

You'll help us send a producer into the field to pursue compelling interviews, record environmental sounds, and discover fascinating stories that must be told.

 
 
 

Base Camp is the online home for our community of monthly supporters.

Whether our stories have us camping on a glacier, observing bison in the American West, or navigating urban landscapes, we need a solid place—a base camp—to support the adventure that is Threshold. It's not a physical place (our team has always been remote) but an essential sense of place where our work is supported month after month, season after season.

We recognize everyone's situation and motivation for giving is different, and we want those who give on a monthly basis to feel equally appreciated. Because of this, a recurring monthly gift at any level provides access to everything available at Base Camp.
