A smiling man wearing a “We Out Here!” cap and bird-themed shirt takes a selfie on a tree-lined gravel trail, with a group of youth and adults walking behind him.

A group of youth and adults gather around a picnic table filled with breakfast foods and drinks under a shaded shelter at a park.

A group of young people and adults walk together on a lush green trail surrounded by dense forest, some holding binoculars.

🧵 Another wonderful Bus to Nature field trip this time with the youth workers from Badger Rock Neighborhood Center. Breakfast, birds, and connection out at Lake Farm Park. These young folks inspire me. Never forget it takes a village. 🫶🏾🌿🐦🪶

A large group of Black and Brown hikers poses for a group photo in front of a UTV at Peace of Mined Acres, surrounded by lush green trees. The group includes adults and children, smiling and dressed for a sunny day outdoors.

A group of BIPOC hikers explores Peace of Mined Acres, walking along a dirt path between a greenhouse and a large shed-style building. Some people chat in small groups while others head toward the gardens. The day is sunny with a bright blue sky and fluffy white clouds above a lush green landscape.

The same group strikes a fun pose, many holding up binoculars as if birdwatching. The mood is joyful, and the forest backdrop glows in the sunlight.

A man in a green shirt and camo pants walks toward the camera with arms outstretched in a peace sign. Behind him, two women follow, one smiling with binoculars and the other adjusting her hat.

🧵 Another powerful day with the Underground Hiking Collective at Piece of Mined Acres! ✊🏾🌿 Big thanks to my homie Joshua Wright for his talk on cancer prevention + the power of the outdoors. Movement is medicine. WE OUTSIDE ALL 2025! 💚 #BusToNature #BIPOCOutdoors
