All Colors in Nature

Our mission is to use our platform to inspire people of color to explore, connect, and play within the great outdoors. We are 3 Afro-Latinas that have found a sisterhood through our love for fitness, travel, and a passion for exploring nature both close to home and in faraway places. The idea to create All Colors In Nature was born during one of our many discussions regarding the lack of diversity in this space. We understand the benefits of nature, including improved mental health, lower stress levels, and a sense of overall well-being. We want people of color to take advantage of these benefits just as we do. Our goal is to lead by example! We believe that diversity and inclusion in outdoor spaces matters. We hope to serve as a resource, providing information about places that we’ve explored, a support system for others that are diving (pun intended) into their love for the outdoors, and hopefully as an inspiration for others to revel in all of the beauty that is mother nature. Let’s create a world where all colors in nature blend together to create lasting memories. ⁣
