Wonder and Wander Walks
Meeting mushrooms, hiking, gathering plant medicine, looking at bugs under rocks, or just sitting still under the forest canopy- however you like to be outdoors, time spent in nature has been shown to have remarkable benefits on our physical and mental health.
These walks draw inspiration from forest bathing practices- we will spend time exploring our senses and meeting magical parts of our local ecosystems, and learn some grounding practices for tending to our well-being by connecting with nature.
These walks can be a great singular experience for individuals or groups, or can be booked as a series to help you build your own ongoing nature-connection practice.
$150 for 1 hour guided walk for up to 8 people.
$50/hr when you book 4 or more walks

Property Surveys
Whether you have acres of unexplored land or a small yard in town, you most likely have free food growing right outside your own home!
We love introducing folks to the abundance that surrounds us. With our wild food property survey, we will spend time exploring your yard, introduce you to all the edibles we find, and can discuss additional native edible and medicinal plants that could thrive in your space.
