Plant Teachings Cards
Plants can be our teachers. They adapt, communicate, model generosity, and are resilient in challenging situations. These values are inherent to Northwest Coastal Native culture. Each of the 23 cards in this deck features a common Pacific Northwest plant and a related social-emotional teaching, accompanied by personal reflection questions. Use these full-color, waterproof and washable cards (suitable for wilderness use) to learn, teach, and remember skills to practice during challenging times.
Set of 23 double-sided waterproof cards: $12 per set (or $35 for the book and cards together)
