Nature journaling page We are now into June, and the start of meteorological summer, this journaling page celebrates what we had in bloom on site in May. Nature journaling is a great way to be curious about what's growing and makes you really slow down and notice what nature is up to. It also makes you celebrate new arrivals and mourn losses. Some plants, like calendula will light up our site all summer long, whereas others, like wisteria or mahonia have a growing season that's quite short...

Marsh orchid in bloom. Our marsh orchids in our wetland are now in flower, we only have a handful of these lovely magenta flowers, but we have anticipated their return and were very happy to find them in the long grass.

Our volunteers at lunch. We couldn't do what we do without our amazing volunteers. Today we said thank you to our Tuesday group of volunteers with a lovely buffet from Grab and Go and some homemade carrot cake and thank-you postcards. Our lunch room was packed while it poured with rain outside!
