Have you 'herd' the news?

There's lots 'moo-ing' on this month 🐮

There’s been lots happening across recently, from celebrating nature and community milestones to important updates about our conservation grazing animals..

Plenty to scroll through, lots to smile about and a few gentle nudges to swap screens for green spaces 😊

Please follow our parks on Facebook and Instagram for stories that celebrate our countryside, our communities and the small moments that make Kent special 🌳💚

We 💚 No Mow May! Please like, share and do more by doing less - less mowing will save you effort, cost and reduce your carbon footprint too!🌼

No Mow May is back! Are you helping nature by letting it grow for ?

Plantlife saving wild plants’ No Mow May is one of the

Here’s to many more miles, smiles and muddy boots with MJ Outdoor Adventures 🙌

Today marks my 1 year anniversary of being a full time walk leader. 🥳
1 year ago today I left my 9-5 (after balancing walk leading part time for a few years), and decided to take a leap and see what could happen 🥾

In the last year ive covered a lot of miles and learnt a lot!
I love our amazing community and can't wait for all our walks and adventures ahead, im so grateful to have met so many wonderful people, esp those who tolerate my happiness at seeing a trig 😆

I keep my skills as sharp as possible by surrounding myself in nature and the outdoors at all times, continously learning and doing first aid work to make sure im up-to-date at all times. Taking extra courses, investing in learning and spending time with those I can learn from as well as teach.

Freelance Walk leading allows me to travel the country and work with my peers as well as following passions like womens walks and connection to nature. In addition to working with some incredible charities thst have really touched my heart.

Here's to another year of exploring, learning and connection to people, nature and the amazing landscape we live in ♡
