No Place to Grow follows a group of Latinx farmers who find themselves representing a movement to save the last green space centered within a neighborhood facing gentrification in Santa Cruz, Ca. Over time we find out what happens when migrated farming traditions intersect with the “urban growth machine”. Set in a small city known for its liberal ideology, a community becomes conflicted as the fate of the garden is in jeopardy.

Want to relax, unwind, and connect to nature? Forest bathing (which doesn’t actually involve “bathing”) is a Japanese form of “eco-therapy” that developed in the 1980s, which offers an antidote to tech-boom burnout and enables you to reconnect with and protect nature.  What is Forest Bathing? Forest Bathing, or Shinrin-yoku, originated in Japan in the 1980, and can be defined as making contact with and taking in the atmosphere of the forest. The goal of forest bathing is to slow down and. become immersed in nature, to take in your surroundings using all your senses. Tune into the sights, smells, sounds, tastes, and textures of the natural environment.  Benefits of Forest Bathing: Health effects include: lower concentrations of cortisol lower pulse rates lower blood pressure greater parasympathetic nerve activity greater appreciation for nature decreased stress Forest Bathing Locations: The Poe Prairie BGSU Tech Pond The Ridge Wintergarden/St. John's Nature Preserve Slippery Elm Trail Simpson Garden Park City Park For more bathing locations Questions?
