SUMMARY:WRITING RETREAT 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow writers to explore how nature shapes language. This three-day writing retreat is inspired by the life and legacy of longtime New York Times nature columnist, prolific author, and outdoorsman Hal Borland.\nThis retreat emphasizes accurate and evocative description, encouraging writers to channel scientific and environmental concerns, personal involvement in the landscape and its history. Participants will leave refreshed, with a deeper understanding of how to captivate their audience and create meaningful relationships between their writing, readers, and the natural world.\nEnrollment is limited to foster deeper engagement between participants and presenters. Participants will have the opportunity to submit work developed during the retreat to an online anthology to be published in the fall.\n
