SUMMARY:Wildflower Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided stroll through Woodlands Garden\, a 8 acre woodland sanctuary in Decatur\, where native wildflowers and deciduous azaleas put on a spectacular show in the spring. Along the trails\, you’ll learn about the diverse plant life that makes our urban ecosystem thrive. This event is co-hosted by Woodlands Garden\, the Intown Chapter of the Georgia Native Plant Society\, and Trees Atlanta. These groups are partners in Trees Atlanta’s work of improving and protecting Atlanta’s Urban forest. Register using this link. \nAbout the guides: \nKaren Lindauer\, retired from CDC\, has been an active volunteer at Woodlands Gardens and Mason Mill Park for a number of years. A long-time member of the GNPS\, she has a special interest in herbaceous native plants and invasive plant removal. Her volunteer efforts are based on information gained through facilitating GNPS native plant rescues and volunteering with George Sanko at the GSU Perimeter College Botanical Garden. Nothing is more rewarding than “liberating” a tree from English Ivy. She especially enjoys sharing the incredible diversity at Woodlands Gardens–a botanical gem right in Decatur. \nSharon Worsham is a retired science and environmental education teacher. She enjoys being co-chair of the Intown GNPS Certification Committee and seeing so many wonderful native plant habitats of those certified. Her love of wildflowers began hiking in the North Georgia Mountains with the Georgia Botanical Society and rescuing native plants for her own yard. She has a deep appreciation of Woodlands Garden as a former Board member and long-time volunteer\, where she helped write their trail guide and kiosk signage. Sharon enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for wildflowers and teaching workshops on foraging for wild foods.

SUMMARY:Forest Bathing Walk
DESCRIPTION:Register now for this gentle\, 2-hour Forest Bathing walk for ages 14 and up. Jess Boyd\, an ANFT-certified guide\, offers participants an opportunity to engage more deeply with nature and connect with others\, while unplugging from the fast pace of modern life. Forest bathing\, or shinrin-yoku\, was developed in Japan during the 1980s for preventative care. “Bathing” refers to the idea of absorbing your natural surroundings using all of the senses\, rather than anything to do with water. The practice is said to enhance well-being\, reduce stress and restore calm. \nNOTE: Minimum of 6 participants for this walk; registration required. \nThe walk fee is on a sliding scale from $15-30. Visit this link to register. \n
