Episode 3 - Dandelions That Grow Through Broken Pavings Are the Most Beautiful

On this episode of Trail Notes by Trash Free Trails, Rach Coleman introduces us to the third pathway of nature connection; Beauty. This episode explores the role aesthetics play when imagining and valuing the natural world. Rach shares the story of the Hackney and Leyton Marshes, these now dry wetlands holding a vested place in their heart and as a reminder that nature can be close, ugly, and altogether familiar. 

‘Take time to appreciate the beauty of Mother Nature. Engage with the aesthetic qualities e.g. appreciating natural scenery or connecting through the arts.’
