The 12 Days Wild challenge is the perfect way to connect with the winter outdoors while supporting wildlife. From December 25th to January 5th, embark on a mini Christmas adventure that encourages you to do one wild thing a day.
What is 12 Days Wild?
12 Days Wild is a fun, festive challenge designed to get you outdoors and immersed in the beauty of winter nature. During those quiet days between Christmas and New Year, when you’re craving something different, why not take a walk in the woods, feed the birds, or recycle your Christmas tree? Whether it’s small acts of kindness for nature, like providing food for local wildlife, or simply soaking in the wonders of the winter season, 12 Days Wild brings nature right to your doorstep.
What Can You Do?
Each day of the challenge brings a new opportunity to connect with the natural world. Ideas range from simple gestures to more adventurous activities. Here’s a taste of what you can do:
- Recycle Your Christmas Tree: Instead of leaving your tree to rot in a landfill, consider recycling it or turning it into mulch for local parks or your garden.
- Feed the Birds: Set up a bird feeder to attract winter visitors. You’ll get to watch them flutter about, bringing life to the frosty mornings.
- Winter Walks: After indulging in festive feasts, take a walk through nearby woodlands or parks. Let the crisp winter air refresh you as you explore.
- Admire Winter Sunsets: Winter sunsets are some of the most beautiful. Take time to admire the breathtaking view and reflect on the season.
These simple yet rewarding acts help support wildlife while fostering a deeper connection to the environment.
