Creating a Vision for the Future
Nature journaling can help us imagine a better future, for ourselves and the planet.
Today, we reflect on what a thriving natural world looks like and how our choices can support and create this.
Through drawing, writing, and sharing, we will create hopeful visions rooted in care, curiosity, and possibility.

Nature journaling prompts and ideas
Tending to plants is an act of hope. When we invest our time and energy into our garden, potted plants or houseplants, it is because we are working towards helping them thrive in the future. If you have a garden, spend some time nature journaling what you are growing. Keeping a garden journal helps us to notice more and make useful observations. If you do not have space for a garden, you could consider growing something in a pot on a sunny windowsill, or even grow some microgreens on the kitchen bench! Even the smallest act like this can bring hope and connection.
If you do have a patch of green to tend to, what would it look like if you realised your wildest garden imaginings? Draw and write about your dream garden. What do you wish to see there? What is growing? What kind of natural visitors is it attracting? And…how could you take steps to make this a reality?
Look around and find something in nature that you never want to lose. It might be bird species that is unique to your area, an individual tree, or a particular view. Journal about why it matters to you and how it could be protected or nurtured into the future.
