Spring peepers will be calling us to enjoy their chorus as we wander through JK Black Oak Wildlife Sanctuary in Lucketts. Kim Strader, Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide with the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs, will lead us on a gentle sensory-opening walk to reconnect or deepen our connection with the natural world in a way that supports overall health and wellness. This slow-paced walk will cover no more than a mile in three hours as we awaken our senses and explore the surrounding forests, fields, and vernal pools. The terrain is gentle but there are no trails, so we recommend wearing shoes or boots with good tread that can get muddy or wet. Directions to the site and additional details will be emailed to participants the week prior to the event. Limit 12. Fee: $30 members/$40 non-members. Registration required.
Registration for this event will open the first week of February. Questions: Contact info@loudounwildlife.org. https://loudounwildlife.org/event/forest-bathing-walk/
