A two-phase event celebrating our connection with nature through writing. In phase one, we collect short written pieces from students and faculty about their personal experiences with nature - from memories of cooking with a loved one, a loved pet, to descriptions of favorite trees on campus. During phase II, we are hosting an evening of readings in the campus garden, where selected writers share their work. During the reading event, attendees can vote for their favorite pieces through a simple online form, with the top three writers receiving eco-friendly prizes.
