Join us for a contemplative approach to photographing nature using smartphones. The emphasis will be on the process, not the product. Walking meditation, mindful breathing, and contemplative appreciation of nature will be the doorways into a reflection on our relationship to nature. What images do we see? What stories do we create about what we observe? Can we learn to see familiar sights with new eyes?
Native plants play an important role in supporting biodiversity. Continue to make a positive impact by adding Native plants to your garden. Fall provides a great time for planting native plant species because of less leaf eating bugs, less weeds, and the opportunity to provide nectar before winter.

Mark your calendars and get ready for some great native additions to your fall garden.
