SUMMARY:Reading the Land: Animal Tracking Excursion with Richard Vacha
DESCRIPTION:Join Sonoma Ecology Center\, Sonoma County Ag + Open Space\, and noted tracker and author Richard Vacha (The Heart of Tracking-Inner and Outer Practices of Nature Awareness) for a rare opportunity to explore the Keen Property landscape beyond Sky Farm. Meeting just a few miles from Sonoma Plaza\, we will wander the winter bay laurel woods in search of clues and climb the Sonoma Volcanics of the Mayacamas to glimpse evidence of the species who call this region home. On this outing you’ll learn to practice deep nature awareness and investigate signs and tracks from an expert naturalist. This outing is recommended for advanced and experienced hikers as it includes some steep terrain and scrabbling paths.

SUMMARY:Winter Forest Therapy Walk at Sonoma Garden Park
DESCRIPTION:Join Sonoma Ecology Center and Sonoma County Ag + Open Space for a gentle\, guided Forest Bathing Walk with Susan Karle at Sonoma Garden Park. This event is inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin Yoku\, which means “forest bathing.” Forest Bathing is the intentional practice of slowing down and immersing oneself in the sights\, sounds\, smells\, and sensations of the natural world in order to restore wellbeing and deepen our relationship with nature. While walking at a relaxed pace and seated\, a series of guided invitations will awaken the senses bringing personal connection to the land.
