Fall Nature & Forest Therapy Walks
With Jane McCluskey
The forest provides more than we typically perceive. Have you caught yourself “day dreaming” as you look out a window? Caught yourself laughing with baby animal videos? Forest therapy walks are not nature hikes, and not meditation retreats. Drawing from old traditions and relatively new findings, nature and forest therapy walks are brief immersions into something you create with Nature.
What will we be doing?
Forest therapy walks are slow journeys through an area populated by natural life. We cannot tell you what you will experience; we can only tell you what we will be doing. In these guided visits, we sometimes walk, sometimes we touch the earth, sometimes we sit, and sometimes we do something different.
What it it not: These walks are not hikes whereby you will get some exercise. It is not teaching about the fauna we are meeting. It is not meditation. However, it can be all those things if you choose. We hope you will be open to something different.
About the guide:
Jane McCluskey is a certified Nature & Forest Therapy Guide. Her background includes training in facilitation and mediation, as well as a master’s degree in conflict analysis and resolution, and is certified in classical feng shui. She has traveled to many places around the world, and seems to have always found herself in a forest. Growing up with naturalist parents and plant friends, she is at home among all beings outdoors. She looks forward to guiding people to a place they may want to return.
Each session offers a different experience depending on the session and the group. Sign up for one walk or multiple!
Ages 12 and up.

Winter nature camps are offered during school winter break (Dec/Jan).
Each camp focuses on the incredible natural world and includes lessons and crafts or other activities, and a hike. We encourage kids to dress appropriately for the weather (usually layers and a jacket) and to wear clothes that can get a bit dirty. We will be outside, after all!
Camps are daily and five hours each. Each weekly camp title will list descriptions, dates, times, and fees. Please refer to the column to the right for info on how to register.
Post-Camp Care: 3 pm – 4 pm (No post-camp care for Camp 5)
Camps will be listed below by age range: 5, 6-7, and 8-11. We can’t wait to have your child join us!
