2026 Calendar Fundraiser Presale
We love to give back to our local parks and community. Our yearly calendar fundraiser is our way to give you a chance to give back to your favorite park and get a beautiful calendar to enjoy the whole year ahead.
All proceeds go to the park/organization of your choice!
- Choose the park/ organization you'd like to support.
- Fill out the pre-order form and pre-pay no later than November 30th.
- Orders will be mailed out and/or local pick up options will be available in early December.
We're moving to Substack!After much consideration we've decided to move the blog over to Substack.
New posts will be sent directly to your inbox (if you'd like) or you can visit the site and brows at your convenience. We will be offering the Adventure Pack as a paid subscription service - seasonal prompts and info to deepen your connection with nature. (More info to come.) All the old posts will remain here, the only difference will be once the domain name changes over. I will be sure to keep you updated as that progresses. Follow the link, take a look, and be sure to sign up! Happy Hiking! https://throughtheohiowoods.substack.com/ |
