Nature & Sustainability Club

The Yellow Studio Nature & Sustainability Club brings our community together to connect—with the natural world, with sustainable practices, and with each other.  We explore local trails, gather by lakes and firesides, and share simple ways to live in closer rhythm with nature.Yes, we love getting outside, but we also host indoor workshops and meetups that make everyday sustainability doable at home. These gatherings focus on practical, creative habits like mending and repairing clothing, low-waste home tips, seed starting and garden basics, upcycling decor, and more. Everything is hands-on and welcoming, even if you’ve never picked up a needle, aren’t much of a hiker, or are just curious to learn alongside neighbors and friends.

Whether we’re hiking, swimming, planting, learning a new skill at the studio, or just sitting under the stars, the club is about slowing down, getting outside, and building a more connected, sustainable community, indoors and out.
