Today’s guest on Relish This is Ford Church, the Executive Director at the Cottonwood Institute.
Ford and his team do some really great work inspiring kids to explore and connect with nature. Their philosophy is that it’s a lot easier to get kids to care about the environment if they have a connection with it.
Is your nonprofit missing an opportunity to foster a real relationship with your community? Ford and the team at Cottonwood certainly take that approach that experiences and tactile connections with the outdoors lead to lifelong caring about our environment. How can your organization create these types of experiences for your constituents to drive more powerful, deeper feelings about the good you do for the world?
Another really great episode of Relish This! I hope you enjoy it.
