In partnership with Girls Inc. Westchester, Khay Kare introduced sustainable fashion and the environmental cost of fast fashion. We dedicated time to empower participants to express themselves through upcycled clothing and demonstrate tangible, beginner-friendly DIY techniques for clothing transformation. Inspire youth to view sustainability as stylish, powerful, and accessible.

This past Saturday, under the warmth of the early spring sun, our Blaque to Nature community gathered at Cranberry Lake Preserve for a soul-nourishing Nature Walk. With each step along the scenic trails, we embraced the beauty of reconnecting with nature and each other—welcoming both familiar faces and new friends into this journey of mindfulness, movement, and joy.

Sometimes, the deepest healing happens off the grid. Khay Kare curated an unforgettable hiking retreat—“Blaque to Nature”—a soulful reset designed to restore balance, connect with the earth, and reconnect with self.

Nestled in the embrace of nature’s stillness, we stepped away from screens and into sacred stillness. Guided hikes, reflective journaling, and intentional breathing created space for clarity, calm, and community. We laughed, we released, we listened—to the trees, to our bodies, to each other.

This first hike was more than just a trail—it was about creating a healing space for new hikers to gather, reset, and explore the natural beauty around us. My goal through this series is to build a community where we can move our bodies, calm our minds, and reclaim the outdoors—together.
