Description

Into Green is an invitation to journey into nature, no matter how urban your environment or green your neighbourhood. It's a book of projects, wisdom and ideas that not only inspire you to get outside and enjoy this beautiful planet, but to find meaningful interactions with nature that cultivate a happier headspace. Authors Caro Langton and Rose Ray, founders of Studio RoCo, explore how being surrounded by green can bring you calm, hope, bravery, wonder and a sense of belonging, and help you connect with green so that you can expand and retreat, grow and disappear, and to ultimately find and lose yourself in nature.

The book is full simple rituals to incorporate into your everyday life, as well as facts, wonders and science that spark awe (which almost always lead to seeing the world differently) and creative projects that build a confident relationship with nature, from creating a wildflower window box to dyeing fabrics with plant materials.
