Morning Nature Journaling

Immerse yourself in nature and learn to capture yourobservations through journaling. Explore drawing, writing, and mindfulness while you expand your skills as a naturalist and an observer of the outdoors. Even if you "can't draw", nature journaling is a great way to get in touch with the natural world and can be done in whatever style or technique works best for you!

All materials provided, including a journal at your first session. Children under the age of four do not need to register if they are accompanied by a registered adult.
