Recommended Reading: Women & Nature (A Four-Book List)
Words by Margaret Leonard. Margaret recommends four books with varied perspectives from women on the intersection of nature, literature, and creativity. Take them with you on your adventures this summer.
Carrying My Own Canoe
Words by Hatie Parmeter. “Do you need some help with that?” a well-meaning middle age dad asked me as I walked into the lake at the end of a portage. I had a 36-pound borrowed kevlar canoe balanced on my shoulders and a gaggle of boy scout onlookers wondering how I was going to get the boat in the water three feet below me.
Recommended Watching: Women Outward Bound
If you’re looking for a documentary about women in the outdoors, look no further than Women Outward Bound, from Minneapolis filmmaker Maxine Davis. The film details the very first Outward Bound wilderness school for girls.
Nature Is Female
One thing you might not know about us is that we’re a women-owned company. That’s right, Warbler was founded by two gals! Gals who enjoy spending time outside: hiking, biking, kayaking, snowboarding, canoeing, camping, and more.
To honor both Mother Nature and women’s equal place in the outdoors, we’ve released a new line of goods, our Nature Is Female line.
