The Book of Nature with Nicole Handfield Bestowing The Brush

You get to hear me talk with Nicole Handfield on this episode about the magical practice of the Nature Notebook and drawing in it, along with a few other topics, too. Nicole has generously shared with us a huge stockpile of resources for nature lore books, nature journaling, and some inspiring ideas as to WHY we do this. Listen in!
