Every season writes a new chapter. With chestnuts and honeyberries, we’re authoring a tale of resilience, taste, and an unapologetic love for the land. #SeasonalStory #NatureChronicles

A belated review of @kendalmountainfest.bsky.social this weekend: excellent points on access, accessibility and inclusion by #OpeningUpTheOutdoors and #CampWild; fascinating & hilarious talk on #DorothyPilley & #EthelHaythornthwaite from #HelenMort & @danzep.bsky.social; lovely #NatureChronicles 1/2

Fabulous to see fellow #RuralWritingInstitute alumni @npitchford.bsky.social, as last year’s #NatureChronicles winner, announcing this year’s winner - congrats to Matt Sowerby! Looking forward to reading all the shortlisted essays in full in the book (love that cover)!
