Gathered: Film, Food, and Community 🌄 Last month we came together at @patagoniaatl Buckhead for the premiere of TOWARD THE SUN, a short documentary about the RWN Hiking Group by filmmakers Maryam Mir & Andrew Nadkarni.

Our Chefs Club served a family-style meal inspired by Afghan and Syrian traditions, old friends and new shared a table, and the stories of refugee women in Georgia got a passionate audience. Together we raised $750 for our Outdoor Wellness Program through ticket sales and the incredible raffle 🎒 Patagonia has also donated tremendous gear that keeps our group dry, warm, and comfortable in the woods, especially recently when we took a group of 15 women on a backpacking trip! Patagonia even sent their Provisions canned tuna and oysters, which made an amazing post-hike lunch with crackers (and a PB&J to finish!) 🥫 Deep thanks to @patagoniaatl (especially Michelle!) for supporting our work and helping make sure Georgia’s outdoorspeople look like all of Georgia. Thank you also to @mmircat @andrewnadkarni, our Chefs Club, Nilo for the flowers, @drinksarilla, @creaturecomfortsbeer, @p4tomorrow, and everyone who joined us. The outdoors is for everyone. 💚 The film Toward the Sun is traveling to different film festivals!
