SUMMARY:Arboretum: Ecopsychology
DESCRIPTION:Participants will have the opportunity to engage in an eight-week program that explores the principles of Ecopsychology and Eco Art Therapy. Walking through this program\, participants gradually gain a deeper sense of self-value\, one’s relationship with nature\, and a desire to engage with Nature as a trusted and valued aspect of one’s own life. \nThe Ecopsychological focus here will be to open yourself to direct experiences within nature and rely on a reciprocation of experiences where you will allow Nature to gently guide your awareness through your senses. You will be challenged to learn from Nature’s wisdom in the absence of words and languages and simply rely on your non-language based senses. You will be amazed by how and what Nature reveals to you through such an approach. You will discover how Nature truly exemplifies ‘unconditional love\,’ and how we can take lessons for our own lives. \nIn each session\, participants will be introduced to new concepts that they will then apply to practical activities\, then reflect both collectively and individually. This course will also explore Eco-Art activities that go beyond the barriers of artistic techniques. Participants will create pieces that they are truly proud of because of the deep experiences and meaning those pieces of art hold. \nGuest Instructor: Memona Hossain \nRegistration \nEarly Bird Fee: $195 by Sept. 4. \nRegular Fee: $210 \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by the early bird deadline the course may be cancelled. Maximum 16 adults.

SUMMARY:Arboretum: Mushrooms Through Summer and Fall Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Explore the mysterious\, weird and wonderful world of fungi! The course is open to students of any skill level\, with the assumption that most will be beginners. Past courses have been taught in October\, when mushrooms are most abundant. However\, this year the course will focus on the seasonal changes in mushroom diversity. The course will be divided into five Saturday morning forays about a month apart on the following dates: \n\nJuly 13\nAugust 10\nSeptember 21\nOctober 19\nNovember 9\n\nParticipants may sign up for one\, more or all forays. However\, if you want to take more than one\, it is recommended to spread them out in order to see the greatest diversity. The morning foray will be followed by an identification session. A species list will be compiled for each foray and a combined foray list will be sent to all interested participants. Please bring a collecting basket of some sort. You are encouraged to bring a field guide\, such as George Barron’s field guide\, Mushrooms of Ontario and Eastern Canada as well as a digital camera and jump drive for sharing photos. \nGuest Instructor: Tim Myles. \nRegistration \nEarly Bird Fee: $50 PLUS a $10 fee per transaction by Aug. 2 (Note: You can register for multiple workshops and/or multiple people in one transaction so you only pay the $10 once). \nRegular Fee: $60 plus transaction fee. \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by the early bird deadline the course may be cancelled. Maximum 16. \nNote: There are 5 “Mushrooms through Summer and Fall” workshops offered in 2019 on the following Saturdays: July 13\, Aug. 10\, Sept. 21\, Oct. 19 and Nov. 9.

SUMMARY:Arboretum: The Sky Tonight...Featuring Hercules
DESCRIPTION:Join guest instructor Trevor Chandler inside his portable planetarium for this amazing program. Families are welcome and encouraged to attend! This planetarium series highlights the night sky as it is appears that evening. The presentations will change from month to month and season to season as our planet “goes through the motions”. We’ll look at what constellations and objects are visible at a given time of year\, but we’ll also spend some time getting to know a selected region of the sky in greater detail. At least one constellation will be selected each month\, highlighting its mythology and brighter stars including their names\, lore and meaning. Then we’ll take a look at a few of the astronomical objects located within the boundaries of the featured constellation. If weather conditions permit\, participants may be invited outside under the stars to see the real deal through a telescope. \nOur featured Constellation for July is Hercules\, the champion. Hercules is prominently positioned in the mid-summer sky. This region of the sky also happens to be the direction toward which our solar system is heading as makes its long circuit around the center of the Milky Way\, once every 250 million years or so. Although it is the fifth largest of the 88 constellations\, Hercules does not contain many bright stars. It does\, however\, abound with objects that are visible even with a small telescope. Perhaps its most beautiful feature is the Great Hercules Star Cluster\, a swarm of about one million bluish suns. \nGuest Instructor: Trevor Chandler \nRegistration \nRegistration Fee: $15 per person PLUS a $10 fee per transaction (you can register multiple people per transaction and multiple Planetarium programs per transaction). \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by July 8\, the program may be cancelled. Maximum 25 people per session. \nALL REGISTRANTS UNDER THE AGE OF 16 MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT. If the course is full when you try to register\, please add your name to the Wait List as we may provide an additional time slot. \nWatch a video about our Planetarium Workshop.

SUMMARY:Arboretum: Mushrooms Through Summer and Fall Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Explore the mysterious\, weird and wonderful world of fungi! The course is open to students of any skill level\, with the assumption that most will be beginners. Past courses have been taught in October\, when mushrooms are most abundant. However\, this year the course will focus on the seasonal changes in mushroom diversity. The course will be divided into five Saturday morning forays about a month apart on the following dates: \n\nJuly 13\nAugust 10\nSeptember 21\nOctober 19\nNovember 9\n\nParticipants may sign up for one\, more or all forays. However\, if you want to take more than one\, it is recommended to spread them out in order to see the greatest diversity. The morning foray will be followed by an identification session. A species list will be compiled for each foray and a combined foray list will be sent to all interested participants. Please bring a collecting basket of some sort. You are encouraged to bring a field guide\, such as George Barron’s field guide\, Mushrooms of Ontario and Eastern Canada as well as a digital camera and jump drive for sharing photos. \nGuest Instructor: Tim Myles. \nRegistration \nEarly Bird Fee: $50 PLUS a $10 fee per transaction by July 5 (Note: You can register for multiple workshops and/or multiple people in one transaction so you only pay the $10 once). \nRegular Fee: $60 plus transaction fee. \nNote: If we don’t have enough registrations by the early bird deadline the course may be cancelled. Maximum 16. \nNote: There are 5 “Mushrooms through Summer and Fall” workshops offered in 2019 on the following Saturdays: July 13\, Aug. 10\, Sept. 21\, Oct. 19 and Nov. 9.
