Nature Journaling (Easy)

ABDNHA Parking Lot 652 Palm Canyon Drive, Borrego Springs

Leaders: Pat Matthews and Selden McKee, ABDNHA Volunteers

This activity repeats on the first Tuesdays of the month to explore nature journaling in the ABDNHA garden and in the field until noon. No experience necessary—just a curiosity about the natural world. Participants will need a small, unlined journal, a pencil, an eraser, a micron pen, colored pencils or a compact watercolor set, and a chair. We will be outdoors, so a sun hat, water, and a snack are recommended. Meet in the parking lot of ABDNHA. No charge; call the Nature Center to reserve.
