Outings

A group of 7 people around the base of a tall tree in the woods. They're dressed for cool weather. Some are wearing caps and have walking poles. They are all smiling.

We believe that access to the outdoors is a human right, and that we can build community by getting outside together. By getting outside we can bond with others and meet new people, and it is great for our physical and mental health. In these times which are challenging in so many ways, we can find solace, strength, and belonging in nature. We hope you will join us!
