In honor of World Soil Day (Dec. 5), Nature Collective will host an all-inclusive habitat restoration event. Presented by Nature Collective and The Queer Sol Collective, San Diegans are invited to a day of re-establishing our relationship with nature and building community! Participants will work together to plant native plants at San Elijo Lagoon while restoring the symbiotic relationships between the individual and the land. This event will offer a talking circle, a place of safety, discovery, healing, and wellness, and a nature tour celebrating the planet’s inherent queerness. This 2SLGBTQ+-focused event is open to everyone; the queer community is especially encouraged to attend and come together, cultivate, and create a more sustainable, positive, and inclusive environment for all. Suggested donations of $5.00 to support a single seed growing into a thriving plant, $10.00 to help a young plant being cared for in a San Diego Garden where learning unfolds, or $25.00 to support the Queer Sol Collective’s Engaging Communities education program. It is a program designed to ignite the emotional connection between the self and the land, piecing together an understanding of what nature is: everything, including us. Registration is required; meet-up location is shared before the event but will take place around the San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve in coastal North County.
