If you don’t have a date next week for Hallmark’s favorite holiday — or even if you do — consider a tryst with Mother Earth.
On Tuesday, Feb. 12, author, naturalist and activist Susan Cerulean comes to Boyd Hill Nature Park for three days of nature writing workshops, giving you the opportunity to channel Henry David Thoreau or John Muir while enjoying the 245-acre, awarding-winning park.
If that’s not enough tree-hugging for you, check out the series of evening events sponsored by the Florida Humanities Council, including a workshop on building community through writing; a screening of the documentary The Wild Heart of Florida and a nature lover’s walk at Weedon Island.
Writing workshops: Tues.-Thurs., Feb. 12-14, 9-10:30 a.m., Boyd Hill Nature Park, 1101 Country Club Way, St. Pete, $20, contact Thomas Hallock for registration.
