We Are Ecowomanists. 🌍 💚
Our mission is to increase the inclusion, ecological awareness, and environmental leadership of African American women.

We encourage our tribe (yes, you all) to spend a few minutes on this day in your garden, meditating. Simply letting your mind wander while you work in the garden, but all will have some benefit.
