Meditation Gardening
INTRODUCTION TO PRACTICING PHENOLOGY & MINDFULNESS AT HOME

Gardening provides many physical and mental benefits beyond just creating a beautiful space to enjoy. Phenology, the study of observing climate and environmental changes, is an important historical scientific and mindfulness practice that can teach us a great deal about our ecosystem– and ourselves. Learn tips for starting and keeping a garden journal, ways to calm your mind, and what to look for when you’re observing nature. Students will take home a Garden Journal for use at home.
