Barefoot & Bloomin'

Books are gateways to curiosity and connection, and can be invitations to step outside, hang up our shoes and go barefoot (when possible), and explore the living world around us.

Our educational and nature-inspired learning experiences strengthen academic skills through inquiry, observation, literacy and art activities. They also support health and wellbeing by encouraging movement, mindfulness, and time outdoors – sometimes barefoot!

In our programs, participants build friendships, use their imagination, and creativity as they learn alongside one another – cultivating not only gardens, but also stronger communities, bloomin’ minds and hearts.
