SUMMARY:Family Forest Bathing

There is no right or wrong way to participate in the invitations. We will simply experience the treasures that can be found in Nature through this playful interactive mindful experience.  Adults\, you may find your inner child while you enjoy time with your family and others in the forest.\n\n\nClick to register for Family Forest Bathing Walk!\n\n\nMore Details: This walk requires pre-registration as group size is limited to 10.
