Begin a memorable valentine's evening with nature!

Forest Therapy is a research-based framework for supporting healing and wellness through immersion in forests and other natural environments.

A forest therapy walk is a gentle, open ended sensory practice that tends to adapt organically to the needs of the participant. Walks can be fun, playful, reflective, profound, simple, humorous, or provide opportunities for grief. As a practice, the experience tends to resist conventional description.

During each walk, a certified forest therapy guide offers invitations to deepen sensory experience and facilitate interaction with nature. There's no wrong way, and lots of "right" ways to do it. Nothing is mandatory, and no particular outcome is expected. Everything is welcome. Immersions typically end with tea made from wild-harvested forest herbs and snacks.

Come try it out and see for yourself!
