Intro to Nature Journaling Workshop Saturday, August 17th, 2024 at 9:30 am
When was the last time you experienced Awe and Wonder??
When did you last take time to simply appreciate the beauty in nature around you??
Join us here at One Medicine Center, LLC and Earth Medicine Farm, LLC on Saturday, August 17th at 9:30 am for a 2 hour Introduction to Nature Journaling Workshop. We will cover the basics, answer questions, and get you started on your new practice.
So, what is it?
Nature Journaling is the practice of using words, numbers, and drawing to document one’s observations of nature. One can find inspiration in a flower, an insect, a bird, a rock, a pepper from the grocery store, a landscape, a cloud, a weed. Anything! You don’t need to be an artist or a wordsmith to deeply enjoy and benefit from this practice. You can use any and all media. Pencils, watercolors, fountain pens, charcoal, anything that resonates with you.
