Fall in Love with Nature Contest Launches!

Want to reconnect with nature and get some extra funds to help? Participate in our Fall In Love With Nature contest for a chance to win a $1,000 REI gift card!

Sometimes, we become disconnected from nature. Our daily routines of work and home can make us forget the importance of spending time outdoors. You might think, "I’m too stressed or too busy to spend time outside," but nature might be exactly what you need.

Research shows that spending time in green spaces—such as parks, nature trails, and lakes—can boost focus and productivity while reducing stress. Embrace Mother Earth’s natural stress-relief benefits and improve your mental health today.

Getting outside also reminds us of what’s at stake. Without action to address the climate crisis, many of our favorite natural spaces—like Yellowstone, Yosemite, Acadia, and Glacier—could face significant damage or even be lost forever. These National Parks draw visitors from around the world, and it would be a great loss if future generations couldn't experience their beauty and wonder.

But it’s not just our National Parks that need protection—our own backyards and their unique ecosystems do too.

At Green Builder Media, we encourage you to embrace your wild side while also taking steps to protect these treasured spaces. Whether you’re exploring trails or enjoying time on water skis, let’s fall in love with nature and commit to preserving it for future generations.

That’s why we’re excited to launch our Fall In Love With Nature contest for the third consecutive year. A contest that gets our readers outdoors and rekindles their love for nature and the need to protect it.

You can enter in 4 quick steps:
