The Quiet and Learning

This trip was amazing! I appreciated the opportunity to connect with the environment and meet the Long Branch Environmental Education Center Staff. It was peaceful, quiet, and for the most part cell-phone service free. We stayed on a mountain and helped with blueberry transplanting and organic farming. The conversation amongst our group was different, insightful, and encouraged thinking. There was intellect and positivity. The personalities of our group members meshed well and allowed us to grow from the experience. I felt like I reconnected with the environment and learned a lot. The most impactful part of my trip was just being in nature and involved in conversations that were unique and allowed for me to learn more.
