A full day of observing, learning, and connecting to the diverse and dynamic world of Nature. In our modern era of information and convenience we have lost much of our ability to sense and understand the subtle cues of Nature's workings but we stand to regain much centeredness, fulfillment, and connection by growing in this way. We will learn trees by their bark, birds by their calls and messages, plants by their withered stalks, and mammals by the tracks and signs they leave for us. And further, we will experience some of how all these beings fit together into a complete community in which we also can have a place. Some ability to traverse hills and ravines will be necessary for this program.
Date: Sunday, October 22
Time: 9-4:30
Ages: 16+ years (ages 13-15 may attend with an adult participant)

Sliding Scale Course Fee Guidelines
Supporter Level Ticket: $120
If you move through the world with financial ease and the means to fulfill many of your wants as well as your needs – you are able to eat out when you want, abundantly meet your needs through employment or can comfortably not work, have access to family wealth, own property, etc. – consider paying at this level, which will help us ensure the long term sustainability of our programs while keeping our offerings accessible to those with access to fewer resources.
Sustainer Level Ticket: $95
If you are able to meet your needs with relative ease while budgeting your educational and entertainment spending – for instance, you are able to take classes and eat out occasionally as long as you are mindful – consider paying at this level, which will help sustain the work of the Folk School at a modest level.
Supported Level Ticket: $70
If you struggle to fund your basic needs and have limited access to resources in your family and community, or if you would not be able to access this offering without a discounted payment option, consider paying at this level. We value your presence and contributions to our community and do not want any economic circumstances to be a barrier to attendance!
Students may bring a notebook and camera if desired. Any desired optics are fine. No need to be in camouflage, but try to avoid noisy and bright clothing, i.e. no 80s neon windbreakers!
