Unplug, slow down, and reconnect with nature during this journaling hike focused on fungi. Nature journaling is a mindful practice that promotes well-being by encouraging presence, curiosity, and reflection.

No artistic skill required—just bring a sketchbook, something to write with, and an open mind. Feel free to bring any additional supplies you enjoy using.
