A reflection from our friend Amy during Ramadan:

During Ramadan, the days feel different — quieter, slower, yet filled with a sense of purpose. The act of fasting, abstaining from food and drink from dawn until sunset, shifts the rhythm of life. But it’s also an opportunity to push the body and mind in new ways, to discover strength in restraint and energy in simplicity.

I'm excited to share this Q&A style interview highlighting Alicia M. Highland - founder and executive director of Tiny Green Learner. Over the past year, Alicia has become both a friend and a business inspiration. She's a lover of all things outdoors, super smart, and great at social media. She's also an all around great business owner, friend, and person. Please keep reading to learn more about Alicia and her work!

Open Trail Collective is about 7 months old and while programming and awareness is growing, funding is slow going. Passion can only take us so far without a proper growth strategy.

In this interview, Saira shares her journey of navigating the challenges and joys of exploring the outdoors as a Mexican immigrant.

AKRON, Ohio -- While Cleveland is known for the river that caught fire, Northeast Ohio’s outdoor industry has flourished in so many ways. When the Cuyahoga River went ablaze in 1969 and was listed as a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency “Area of Concern” in 1987, no one would have guessed that our region would grow into a poster child for environmentalism and have the potential to be a leader in the outdoor recreation industry.

We have been so excited to collaborate with Recreation Club an organization based in Shaker Heights, OH, dedicated to promoting outdoor activities for all ability levels. Recreation Club provides a safe, engaging environment for teens and adults with autism and other intellectual disabilities.
