Three of my favorite things about the winter woods: White Pine Tea, Birch Trees, and a good fire to sit beside. What are your favorite things about being outside in the wintertime? If you’d like to learn more about connecting with the natural world through mindfulness, animal tracks in the snow, and outdoor skills, perhaps you’d like to join me and @berkshire_naturalist @kripalucenter for our workshop entitled “The Mindful Tracker” this February 23-25. It’s going to be a fun and empowering weeke

White birch is a beautiful and iconic tree species — and also one that can give us clues about a forest’s past! #tree #trees #forest #forests #nature #ecology #ecosystem #woods #forestry #forester #history #stem #birch #birchtree | Ethan Tapper
