Trees : Weekend Retreat
The more we know about trees (their complex methods of communication, their mutual support, their positive effect on human well being) the more we have to learn from these quiet, gentle, patient sages. Trees not only clean our air and give us breath, they also calm our mind and help us be…be like them: generous, fruitful, strong, light-seeking members of interdependent communities of life. Through a series of creative outdoor activities led by local naturalist and tracker, byron murray, and reflective practices offered by Greg Kennedy, retreatants will fall deeper into the love and wisdom of trees, whose teachings we need more than ever in this troubled era of floods and fire.
Learn The Land
Learn The Land is a year-long adult program at GOS for anyone who wants to develop and deepen their nature connection and naturalist knowledge in a community setting. One day each month, we’ll gather in a different natural environment around Guelph to learn about wildflowers, trees and shrubs, animal tracking, all the while exploring how we fit into the broader ecological community. A monthly zoom call supports home study and self-directed projects.
Moon School
Moon School is a time to learn and connect in the woods with other adults, intended to inspire reverence, resilience and cultural transformation.
We walk, we talk, we wonder about our place in the web of life. We play and tell stories. And we ask big questions like: What does relationship to place look like in the Anthropocene?
