Night Sky Programming
"The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself." - Carl Sagan
Night Sky Programming​
​
There is nothing quite like standing under the Milky Way or gazing up at the Full Moon from the top of a hill. Carl Sagan, the late great astronomer, said, "Astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience."
​
Similarly, using all of our senses to listen for the "who cooks for you?!" of the barred owl or being immersed in a symphony of spring peepers and wood frogs reminds us of the interconnectedness of life on our planet.
​
After sunset, our programs include options for Night Sky Walks, Full Moon Hikes, Stargazing Nature Therapy, Guided Night Sky Meditation, and nocturnal & crepuscular naturalist walk programs.
