“Listen. The earth speaks wisdom. Tells when and how to move. Sets a cadence for the rhythm of our days, our lives. Unleashes the wildness within.”
Ann Linnea’s entire life has been dedicated to sharing the wonders of the natural world with people of all ages. Her books, essays, blogs, her various professions, and recreational interests are all focused outdoors. Not just being outdoors, but noticing, learning from, and appreciating the natural world.
Now retired, but certainly not “retiring,” she participates in local outdoors adventure sports, and serves in numerous volunteer activities.
Ann’s blog reflects a lifelong dedication to Earth stewardship, the skills needed to explore adventures, and sharing the wonders of nature with family, friends, and community. Please subscribe below.
