"We went forging for stinging nettle at Rural Urban Flow, it was alot of fun seeing people from my community just running free in the fields. Gathering nettles, something that could sting us, but having the knowledge on how to handle them. That's change." bit.ly/3PnhRAj

Thanks @ToneMSN for reviewing our 'Humanity Unlocked' podcast "...incarcerated Wisconsinites are Wisconsinites; their stories are more expansive than their crimes or the time they spend in prison. The series is humanizing, eye-opening, and full of hope. tinyurl.com/2s4as2ms
