SUMMARY:Winter Forest Bathing at the Hitchcock Center
DESCRIPTION:Winter Forest Bathing at the Hitchcock Center \nWith Todd Lynch\nSaturday\, February 12\, 2pm – 4:30pm \nand/or Saturday\, March 19\, 2pm – 4:30pm\n$25 per class\nREGISTER HERE \nCome experience a guided Forest therapy walk with Todd Lynch\, certified ANFT guide. Forest and Nature Therapy offers us the opportunity to slow down. It re-aligns our rhythms with the landscape\, allowing our senses a respite from everyday demands and uncertainties. It’s a chance to remember our connections to nature and the joyful relationships that await us outside. This guided experience is not a hike or naturalist adventure\, but an opportunity to slow down and allow our bodies to engage all of our senses. Please note that this is not “therapy” as commonly denoted in our culture\, but an offering of a therapeutic way to be in nature. Guides are not trained clinicians; they hold the space to let the forest be the “therapist”. \nWhat to Expect: \nA leisurely walk of about a mile with stops along the way where we will gather and sit. We’ll all wear our masks when we gather together and the walk will be planned in a way to promote safe physical distancing of 6 feet or more between participants. \nWe will focus on our senses to develop an immediate connection with the forest. This is a very relaxed\, slow\, and mindful way of walking. The walk should last about 2-2.5 hours and we will finish with a gathering circle where we can share about our experiences..

SUMMARY:Winter Forest Bathing at the Hitchcock Center
DESCRIPTION:Winter Forest Bathing at the Hitchcock Center \nWith Todd Lynch\nSaturday\, February 12\, 2pm – 4:30pm \nand/or Saturday\, March 19\, 2pm – 4:30pm\n$25 per class\nREGISTER HERE \nCome experience a guided Forest therapy walk with Todd Lynch\, certified ANFT guide. Forest and Nature Therapy offers us the opportunity to slow down. It re-aligns our rhythms with the landscape\, allowing our senses a respite from everyday demands and uncertainties. It’s a chance to remember our connections to nature and the joyful relationships that await us outside. This guided experience is not a hike or naturalist adventure\, but an opportunity to slow down and allow our bodies to engage all of our senses. Please note that this is not “therapy” as commonly denoted in our culture\, but an offering of a therapeutic way to be in nature. Guides are not trained clinicians; they hold the space to let the forest be the “therapist”. \nWhat to Expect: \nA leisurely walk of about a mile with stops along the way where we will gather and sit. We’ll all wear our masks when we gather together and the walk will be planned in a way to promote safe physical distancing of 6 feet or more between participants. \nWe will focus on our senses to develop an immediate connection with the forest. This is a very relaxed\, slow\, and mindful way of walking. The walk should last about 2-2.5 hours and we will finish with a gathering circle where we can share about our experiences..

SUMMARY:Forest Bathing at the Hitchcock Center
DESCRIPTION:Come experience a guided Forest therapy walk with Todd Lynch\, certified ANFT guide. Forest and Nature Therapy offers us the opportunity to slow down. It re-aligns our rhythms with the landscape\, allowing our senses a respite from everyday demands and uncertainties. It’s a chance to remember our connections to nature and the joyful relationships that await us outside. This guided experience is not a hike or naturalist adventure\, but an opportunity to slow down and allow our bodies to engage all of our senses. Please note that this is not “therapy” as commonly denoted in our culture\, but an offering of a therapeutic way to be in nature. Guides are not trained clinicians; they hold the space to let the forest be the “therapist”. \nWhat to Expect:\nA leisurely walk of about a mile with stops along the way where we will gather and sit. We’ll all wear our masks when we gather together and the walk will be planned in a way to promote safe physical distancing of 6 feet or more between participants. \nWe will focus on our senses to develop an immediate connection with the forest. This is a very relaxed\, slow\, and mindful way of walking. The walk should last about 2-2.5 hours and we will finish with a gathering circle where we can share about our experiences. \nwith Todd Lynch\n9:00-11:30am\nSaturdays: May 8\, May 22\, and June 5\nSliding Scale: Tier A:$36 Tier B: $30 Tier C: $23 Tier D: $15 (for those EBT\, WIC or Card to Culture benefits) OR All three classes A: $100  B: $80  C: $60  D: $40 Participants who sign up for all three classes will get a 10% discount.\n \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:7-10am: Nature All Year: Migratory Birds with Scott Surner
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an in-depth natural history course to develop your naturalists skills. Each month\, in our series of nature explorations with different local naturalists\, we explore a focused\, seasonal\, natural history topic. We’ll look at nature in new ways\, from broad habitat perspectives to close details of individual species. Over the course of the year we’ll visit a variety of natural habitats in the greater Pioneer Valley area. Identification skills\, ecological connections\, adaptations\, and life cycles of organisms will be the focus of our observations. Bring your curiosity and observation skills. Dress for the weather for 3 hours as we rarely cancel due to inclement weather. Bring binoculars and a hand lens\, water and snacks if you would like. These will be outdoor only programs. Please dress for the weather and plan to wear a mask for everyone’s safety. \nAs spring emerges so many birds return to their summer breeding and feeding grounds in search of a safe place in which to make a nest and begin the next generation. Scott Surner\, long time bird enthusiast\, will offer tips on bird identification from sight\, song and flight patterns as we amble along the trail in search of winter migrants. \nBackground: Scott Surner has been studying and observing birds for over 45 years throughout the Connecticut River Valley\, (Massachusetts) New England and North America. His travels have taken him to New Jersey\, Delaware\, Florida\, Texas\, Arizona\, California\, Wyoming\, Colorado\, Alaska\, Canada (Nova Scotia\, Newfoundland & Churchill) Costa Rica\, Belize and Veracruz\, Mexico. He has been teaching bird ID classes at the Hitchcock Center for the Environment in Amherst\, MA since 1980.
