Plant Blindness

[Catherine]

You are right. Wilderness weekends and nature walks would help people connect with nature. 
Maybe people learn to see life from other people who already see life. That means those of us who are aware of nature have a responsibility to pass on our knowledge.

I would have loved the nature walks you had in school. They would have made your whole day more pleasant.
I wish more schools were like that. 


The school on my street has raised beds on the front lawn, full of plants that the children tend. It gives them a nature connection. Sadly too few schools are like that.
