Forest Therapy – A Weekend of Mindfulness Practices, Nature Immersion, and Poetry
Friday – Sunday, September 11-13, 2020
Forest Therapy is so much more than a walk in the woods.

Join us this weekend for a time to celebrate our connection with each other, and with the living natural communities in which we are immersed. More information…
