Register now for this exciting educational series!

Now that winter is starting to subside into the rearview mirror, we can look forward to taking joy in the emergence of spring.

Join us for five Friday lunchtime sessions as we celebrate spring as a season of growth, optimism and fresh starts. Those who sign up for the package of four sessions will have access to a special bonus session the final week!

We’ll be discussing topics like how to create garden spaces that help us heal emotionally or physically and the value of play for healthy development.

Events take place over Zoom with time for live questions and discussion afterward. Zoom links will be sent via email prior to the program.

$40 for the series, including a bonus guided hike on a surprise theme at Bernheim in March or $12 per session (bonus program not included)
