Join us for a morning of nature journaling in Kings Park!

Buds to blooms - nature journaling in Kings Park

Learn how to nature journal, just in time for wildflower season! After an introduction to nature journaling and warming up with some exercises we'll go for a bushland walk and then practice our nature journaling skills by the botanic garden as the buds get ready to bloom for spring. All materials will be provided.
