About this Event

Through nature journaling, the session will explore phenology- the study of natural seasonal changes. Designed for adults, this short course will guide you through our woodland, identifying its flora, fauna, and seasonal elements. Our discoveries will be transposed through art, doodles, poetry, creative writing, or how you see fit. You will learn about these discoveries during the session.
