Nature is a basic human need. Time in nature does not have to mean elaborate adventures or time in the wilderness. It can mean spending time in community green spaces, parks, or in your backyard or patio.

Countless research documents the positive impact that access to nature has on wellbeing and health for humans of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

Access to trees and green space can improve physical and mental health, focus and concentration, creative thought, and even longevity.

While it's clear there really is no arguing, people spend more time indoors and being sedentary than ever before. Sometimes, it seems that accessing nature is a big hurdle, and we are just too busy to visit wild spaces.

My name is Jessica. I am a mom, child development expert, and business owner. I have experienced trauma and mental health struggles, and I am an advocate for the power of nature. I see the research, and I have experienced the benefits firsthand!

What if I told you that the benefits of nature can be accessed at home, school, or in your office building? That you do not have to climb mountains, chase sunrises, or travel far from home to reap the benefits of good old vitamin nature?
