Note from Nature

The wind in winter woods is like

a shepherd to his flock of flakes

and soon the firs anticipate

how blessed will be the light

Testimonials

As many have said, [The Spiritual Wisdom of Trees] course was so enlightening in so many ways! It lifted spirit, it allowed us to wonder, connected us physically and spiritually to the natural world, it engaged us in a community and more.  Thank you for all those who led in front and behind the screen!  It is a course I will carry with me for a lifetime.
