We’re so pleased to announce our new book created in partnership with @first5california Humboldt!

🙌 en Español y Ingles 🙌

“Hiking Humboldt KIDS” by Rees Hughes

(and many book parents including Jennifer Gonzales, @benselman, @michael.kauffmann, @earth2allison, and talented local photographers)

Built for use with kids, this book will inspire family adventures with authentic experiences in nature that develop wonder in children and adults alike.

Research shows us that these shared experiences in early childhood have valuable and long-lasting positive effects on our health and wellbeing.

25 Hikes are grouped into four geographic regions of Humboldt County, CA. Each hike includes:

✅ Descriptions, driving and walking directions, and a custom map

✅ An activity for kids that highlights various flora, fauna, historical, or cultural aspects related to the hike

📗Paperbacks are coming to you in hand in early May! Preorder and eBooks are available now at our L I N K — and the eBook is FREE with your paperback preorder!
