"Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.
It's not."
Mission
Speaks for Trees and More is a nonprofit organization providing educational nature-based & environmental programming and workshops to the community. And, it is through these opportunities that we bring awareness to related topics that need our care & attention and ultimately why [to care about it/them].
With a gift of $80, you can sponsor a program for an entire classroom at a local school or youth group in the community.
Introduction
Speaks for Trees and More was established as my personal journey continued to evolve. And, as I pursue a Bachelor of Science in Sustainability with an Environmental Science concentration, serve as a certified Advanced Indiana Master Naturalist, certified Leave No Trace Member and Community Partner, Lifetime Girl Scout and local 4-H Club Leader, I aspire to inspire! I love our natural world and hope to share something new or reintroduce you to something always known, but forgotten. Let's explore this big, beautiful planet together through education, play, creativity or a simple hike through the woods!
Have you ever pondered inviting a Naturalist to your event or activity or host a Leave No Trace Awareness Workshop? I am available to visit your classroom, scout group, club, birthday party, or meet at any of the surrounding beautiful parks or preserves!
Have a natural or environmental topic in mind? Let me know! I can customize any nature-based or outdoor experience based on curriculum standards or simply a favorite interest in whatever you're finding out there in the natural world! Or check out our scheduled program offerings below!
Looking forward to seeing you soon - among the trees!
