2. Nature Connection Workshop 

Research shows that when we are more connected to nature we are significantly more likely to protect it. The intention of this workshop is to facilitate nature connection and deep ecology activities for adults and children . This activity provides an opportunity for people of all ages to connect to the beautiful natural world around them in fun and inviting ways. 

An opportunity for you (and any little ones you may have) to explore  and develop your connection to nature through play, learning and community connection.

The workshop promotes actions towards living a sustainable and low-impact lifestyle and provides some much needed quiet time in contemplation and deep connection to the healing benefits of nature – ensuring our own personal sustainability in the drive for a more sustainable future.

Please note we warmly welcome diversities of all types, ages, genders, cultural, sexuality, relationship status, and abilities – Nature is so diverse and loves diversity and so do we – there is a place for everyone in our Gatherings.
