Touch grass: nature connection for LGBTQ+

We’ll meet at 13:00 at the park entrance (https://maps.app.goo.gl/BmUn3V76u6J2eEXM6). From there, we’ll walk together to the spot where our circle and other activities will take place. By 15:00, we’ll be back at the entrance where we started. 🌈 Why Join? Because nature is the best! And so are queers! And so is community! To take a moment to collectively slow down, quiet down and listen more carefully inward or outward. It’s likely going to be fun! Or at least different. You’ll meet new queers (and their safe people, queer or not) or spend time with familiar faces, all while surrounded by trees and fresh air. Also, you will help out a fellow queer with their research on public spaces by filling out a 13 min survey after the event. Pretty please! 🚫 What This Is Not • Not nature therapy — it’s a nature connection activity. • Not a herbal medicine walk. • Not a ritual. 💚 Cost It is for free. After the event you're warmly invited (not required) to participate in a 13-minute survey for my Master's thesis on interactions in public spaces — full transparency, nothing is observed or studied during the event itself. 🌾 Who Is This For? LGBTQ+ only Queer folks who love nature — or who want to explore what it’s like to be more present and connected in nature. To help create a safe-enough space, all participants will be asked to fill out a short form in advance (about mobility, allergies, or anything else you’d like me to know as your guide). If you cannot make it, please cancel in advance, so that someone else can take your spot. 🎒 What to Bring • Sturdy shoes • Rainproof clothes and/or an umbrella (just in case) • Sunscreen (also just in case) • Water, tea, or a small snack to share • Extra layer of clothing in case it gets chilly 🕵️ Who is Organising this? Noa is a nature connection guide and a counseling therapist in training. They spent 15 years in activism and they are now spending most of their time either touching grass, or bringing people together to touch grass. Solidarity, community and simplicity are at the core of their work. They always appreciate a dad joke and a crunchy snack.
