Happy International Biodiversity Day, May 22!
When we learn to see ourselves as the reflection of our interconnectivity with the natural world, horizons open into celebrating all the company we keep. This shows our endless potential and our strength, as part of the whole.
In gratitude to the ones who teach us who we are, from every seed to each expression of birdsong and the hum of the smallest pollinating insect, and all who help us learn from the heart, expanding our understanding.

We will celebrate several important gatherings online during 2020, to share Earth Day, International Biodiversity Day, Arbor Day, Restoration news, and many important ways to contribute to what sustains us ALL!
Since 2013, WILDLANDANCE
has been establishing a native tree and shrub nursery to support site-specific, resilient restoration projects in our Rocky Mountain home region.
The WILDLANDANCE website will soon reflect a renewed focus on ecocultural sustainability and the creative potential to address change in a regenerative, positive and increasingly collaborative way. While there is no "blog" available, networking possibilities are extensive, and a new page will offer many resources.
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE ENTHUSIASM, ENGAGEMENT & RESTORATIVE CONTRIBUTIONS!
