Being present, time and space

For a couple of years now I have been contemplating how Paganism as a religion relates to its environment.
I have a project I want to get going on, and I am hoping that by putting it in writing for others to witness, I will actually begin it.
I would like my own faith to become more grounded in the time and place I am actually in. I believe that one of the best things about Paganism is that it is a religion that does not dismiss the realities of the physical body and its environment as a test for the afterlife or a distraction from the work of the spirit or mind.
So, I want to learn more about where I actually am, including the general weather patterns, the watershed, the source of my food, the markers of seasonal change in this actual year, etc., so I can localize my faith and interact more fully with the environment I am living in.
