Nature Journaling North Grenville began in the Kemptville Campus greenhouse. Now, with the support of a North Grenville Arts and Culture Development Fund grant, Nature Journaling NG is set to take its activities beyond the confines of indoor spaces to the vast expanse of NG trails, starting this April.
Meredith Luce’s journey into nature journaling was inspired by a desire to instill a love for nature and creativity in her young daughter. What began during the pandemic as a personal project sharing materials with friends and their childre, has evolved into a communal experience, supported by the A&C Development Fund.
Central to Meredith’s artistic work is her commitment to fostering environmental stewardship and artistic expression. Beyond nature journaling, Meredith also imparts her knowledge through teaching watercolour and printmaking, further enriching the creative landscape of the community.
The Nature Journaling events promise to inspire curiosity and a deeper connection to local green spaces. Participants embark on hikes along the NG trail, to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature while documenting their observations and experiences in their journals.
