April is Earth Month, and WPLN News partner Niche to Meet You is taking a look at this annual celebration through the lens of a niche subculture built around the appreciation of … sticks. Yes, sticks.
Producer Leslie Eiler Thompson reports on the Instagram account @officialstickreviews, which rates and reviews found sticks with unexpected sincerity and wit. What began as a small, quirky idea has grown into a celebration of nature’s quieter details, inspiring a global following that encourages people to slow down and pay attention.
Featuring the voice of Nashville author Margaret Renkl, this Earth Day story highlights how even the most ordinary parts of the natural world can become sources of wonder and connection.
