I step onto a sidewalk or into a park as if I am stepping onto a giant game board.
I walk, look, listen and see what happens. Sometimes I find a small treasure, and sometimes I meet a special person.

The Story Walking Radio Hour (SWRH) is an online open resource that supports environmental education and awareness. SWRH podcasts can help teachers, parents and school counselors introduce youth to professional vocations that offer exciting opportunities to help co-create a greener and healthier world. Nature-inspired eco-conscious stories and conversations inspire activism and promote habits, products and practices that listeners can consider incorporating into their daily living to support sustainability.
The radio hour guest list includes nature educators, farmers, landscapers, arborists, lawyers, biologists, urban planners, programmers, product developers, a fashion journalist, artists, authors, business professionals, students, activist parents and more. Host Wendy Nadherny Fachon, a freelance environmental educator and journalist, begins each episode by sharing a short story from her own personal Walking Journal. Each story offers a lesson in the soul-guiding practice of Story Walking, while also setting the stage for each guest interview.
SWRH content seeks to address Next Generation Science Standard ESS3.C Human Impacts on Earth Systems, which states: “Human activities in agriculture, industry, and everyday life have had major effects on the land, vegetation, streams, ocean, air and even outer space. But individuals and communities are doing things to help protect Earth’s resources and environments.” SWRH also supports biological science, English language arts, social studies and social-emotional learning.
We love our listeners and supporters, and we appreciate all the good you for for our world.
