As Earth day approaches – you may be wondering: how do we love the earth here at Runoia? To that I say: let me show you and we can count the ways – the Runoia way!
Learning to grow our own food…
and loving and caring for animals!
Learning outdoor skills and Leave No Trace in camp craft…
for the chance to practice those skills on trips to enjoy the natural beauty of Maine!
Learning to create with natural materials…
and watching sunrises and sunsets over Great Pond!
Moving our bodies outside…
and connecting with one-another, unplugged, each day!
We are so grateful for the earth that provides the water of Great Pond for us to swim, boat, and play in, for the tree that houses our favorite hangout spot, for the rocks and peaks that we climb together, for the herbs and veggies that grow in our soil, for the materials we make art with, for the sand we’ve spent hours singing our songs on, for the grass we do our cartwheels on, for each other. Join us in celebrating our earth and all of its splendors this spring!
Grant that we have safe and fun days, and that we respect each other, ourselves, and our planet.
XOXO,
Runoia
