Description

Slow down. Simplify. Let go.

365 Nature does just this. It's your entry into a world that spins slowly and draws its inspiration from the earth, the ocean, the sun and the sky. Each turn of the page through spring, summer, autumn and winter will lead to a new discovery and a new project to help you weave nature and creativity and some wild fun through your everyday life.

Build a garden bed and plant seeds. Watch your vegetable garden grow, and pluck a tomato or two to make a salad. Go on a walk in the woods and pick up the sticks, stones, feathers that grab your eye. Turn these found objects into wall hangings, dreamcatchers, necklaces.

Find a sit spot. Come back to the same spot year-round to watch the world change around you and meditate. Make some rope by hand and weave it into a bag to take on your adventures.

Rediscover a childlike joy of nature through the over 58 creating, cooking, making and doing projects 365 Nature is the ideal way to put down your devices and spend time with your friends, your family, and, of course, yourself.
