The Literature & Nature Book Group at Baltimore Woods welcomes you to nourish and enhance your appreciation of the natural world with ongoing friendly discussions of great writing on that theme.

SUMMARY:Forest Therapy Walk
DESCRIPTION:Experience nature in a unique way on a guided Forest Therapy Walk throughout Baltimore Woods!

You will have opportunities throughout for both individual reflection and to come together as a group to listen and share what we are noticing. The 2.5 hour walk ends with a tea ceremony with wildcrafted tea foraged from the area and snacks. \nClick to register for a Forest Therapy Walk at Baltimore Woods!\nMore details: This walk is designed for ages 14 and up.
