Join The Nature Connection in welcoming the summer solstice with a mindful nature journaling workshop!

Nature journaling is a way to record your observations, questions, and experiences of nature and to mindfully connect with the natural world. Our goal is to help you experience the sense of wellbeing that can come through deepening your relationship with nature. This event is open to all ages and all levels, from beginners to experienced journalers.

We will begin with a brief introduction and orientation, then spend an hour journaling at Gerow Park near Warner’s Pond in West Concord, and end with a closing sharing circle. Journal prompts and guidance will be provided as desired.

The Nature Connection will have paper, clipboards and some writing/drawing supplies to share. We will also have a limited supply of homemade journals for sale.

What to bring: your own nature journal or sketchbook and preferred drawing/painting/writing supplies. Dress appropriately for the weather, including a hat and/or sunscreen, bug repellent, and walking shoes. Bring a water bottle and your own snacks or a bag lunch if you’d like!

Gerow Park has accessible trails, water, and restrooms onsite.

Cost: Free, with suggested $10 donation.
