What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreIvy loves nature's surprises and gifts, such as the medicinal use of plants. She has been known to give foraging tours to family and friends.
She couldn't possibly choose a favorite. It would be unfair to the others! In her spare time she volunteers at an equine therapy nonprofit organization, a wildlife rehabilitation center, and a local environmental research institute- focusing on river ecosystems. She is especially fascinated with horses and birds of prey and loves getting to know each one of them individually.
She loves camping because she enjoys sleeping under the stars. She is a knot-tying guru and likes to practice other survival skills too, such as building fires. Or you can find her relaxing by the stream, painting with natural pigments from river rocks.
