NATURE JOURNALING
A Develop a heightened sense of the natural world outside!
A Nature Journal is a place to grow your
thoughts, feelings, ideas, activities, observations,
and relationship with the natural
world. It is an opportunity to interpret your
inner thoughts in relation to the natural
world and a space where nature can flow
into you and leave a permanent impression.
We will study the natural world, grow a
deeper relationship with the Earth, and
develop a greater awareness and caring for
the Earth. We will have time to practice
nature journaling while on site. Participants
will also be encouraged to
share readings from their
journal or from other nature
writings that are meaningful to them.
