Celebrate the deep beauty of mid-winter with Living Tree Alliance as we gather to honor the holiday of Tu BiShvat, the birthday of the trees. With programs for all ages, we’ll plant seeds of stewardship and intergenerational community-building.

We’ll gather 11 am to 2 pm, with three program options:

• Contemplative showshoe/walk for adults. Led by Kohenet Sephirah Oshkello, we’ll snowshoe or walk through the woods on a contemplative journey inspired by the teachings of Jewish mystics, while appreciating and connecting with the tree community that lives here.

• Outdoor family program. Led by primitive skills mentor Elliot Cluba of Herbs and Arrows and Living Tree Education Director Melanie Grubman, we’ll connect with the holiday through storytelling, forest games and tracking.

• Music for little ones. Ms Andrea of Musical Munchkins will lead a joyful musical program for young children.

A few more details:

• Be sure to dress warmly for outdoor activities.

• If there's snow, you're invited to bring sleds, skiis, and snowshoes for outdoor fun on the property.

• Snowshoes available for rent at Clearwater Sports

• Bring food to share around the fire!
