Serenade Spring Topic:
Insect Population & What You Can Do
Serenade's intention through Project Parties commencing in all four seasons, is
to raise awareness of the importance of nature connection through fun and collective
efforts. Through preparation and the effort of having fun, you can constructively
effect restoration of the web of life. Serenade’s
hope is that through repetition of activities you will reweave the tapestry
of nature connection and make new traditions for your family that will continue
for generations to come.
