We love Nature At The Confluence! Julie taught Livin’ & Learnin’ clients about the seasonal life of animals, and we got to practice “gathering energy” in the fall to prepare for winter (which included eating snacks 😉), building a hibernation home for winter, and taking a “Spring ...Walk” to see all the animals and plants emerging for a new season. Clients even got a visit from a tiny snake on the walk! 🐍

Thank you to Nature At The Confluence for providing a fun, safe, and educational environment for our clients to explore their surroundings!
