As author Robin Wall Kimmerer writes, “Maybe there is no such thing as rain; there are only raindrops, each with its own story.” What are the names and stories of the places in nature special to you? Deepen your connection to your favorite houseplant or spot in the garden by creating a mosaic stepping stone that acts as a label to identify and tell the narrative of these living beings.
