Nature Nerding and Parc d’environnement naturel de Sutton (PENS) are teaming up to offer monthly opportunities for adults to reconnect, experience, and learn from nature.
“Nature Nerding for Curious Grown-Ups” will provide participants with the chance to take part in leisurely walks and “slowdown, reconnect, and revive” their “child-like sense of wonder and curiosity,” said Jessica Adams, educator and founder of Nature Nerding.
Adams added that the idea behind the outings is to “engage the senses” and for people to experience and recognize what is around them, while also learning about the different species, biodiversity, and ecological phenomena.
According to Patricia Lefèvre, executive director of PENS, the collaboration is a part of a larger initiative that will see the non-profit environmental organization “pool” together other experts, specialists, and nature-education resources in the area with the goal of offering educational activities across the Eastern Townships.
