Do you love to take photos? Join us for a four week long Love Your Mother photo challenge!
To participate, just submit a picture taken between Wednesday, April 22nd (Earth Day) and Friday, May 22nd 2020 from somewhere in the North Country. The picture can be of anything you choose - maybe it is a sunrise, a waterfall, birds at your feeder... you name it!
Post the picture on Nature Up North as an Encounter (you'll need to create a free account on natureupnorth.org). We will randomly select the posters of two Encounters to receive a prize and a third encounter will be featured as the home page on our website for a month!

Ask a Fairy
Thank you for visiting the fairies this spring! You had some really great questions and Thimble and Blossom had so much fun answering them. It was especially nice to stay connected while we were apart. The fairies are already up in Canada where they'll be spending the summer, but are excited to come back next fall!
