Waiting list for Soulful Connection With Trees 2020
Trees have always held a special place in human culture as sources of not only food, fuel and practical use but creative inspiration, mythic symbolism and spiritual significance. Have you ever wondered if trees can communicate, and how? Or how they grow, and what their shape tells us about their lives? Or how to identify different species without even looking at the leaves, and what their presence might tell us about the soil, water or other living beings in the surrounding landscape? Or perhaps even what it feels like to be a tree.
Over this weekend we'll connect deeply with trees in diverse ways, from learning to identify species and understanding basic tree biology to intimate sensory experience and deep soulful connection. We'll learn about their uses and services, myths and folklore associated with them and cultivate a whole new appreciation for our wooded friends.
This weekend course uniquely blends practical field ecology and deep nature connection. Together we'll learn to:
- Identify common tree species using a range of techniques
